Howdy y'all,
Penguin PBX Solutions is pleased to announce the release of Always Be
Conferencing version 16l, released under the Creative Commons Zero v1.0
Universal (CC0 1.0) license for maximum efficiency in distribution and
adaptation into your local environment. Just one AEL file & full of fun!
Download via Git Hub: https://github.com/chrsmj/always-be-conferencing
NEW IN RELEASE v16l
===================
~ Support for ASTERISK 13 thru 17. Versions before 16 make use of System() application to spool calls,
while versions from 16 on-wards make use of the Originate() application's native "a"synchronous option.
~ Separate Yurt Corners for Work From Home mode to allow break-out from main Yurt into smaller discussions.
~ Easier one-line Parallel Mode for Voicemail/Email non-conference call notifications. For example:
exten => 922,1,Dial(PJSIP/${EXTEN}@#YOUR-TRUNK#&Local/${EXTEN}@pngnpbx-abc-parallel-vm-notify,,r)
...can generate you an email like this (if you have voicemail-to-email enabled in your voicemail.conf)...
"Dear Friend:

want to check it when you get a chance. Thanks!

From the updated FAQ
====================
Question:
Why use 922 as the example extension that users will dial to reach 933 ?
Answer:
922 is currently only used for the police in Tonga. And it might help
users distinguish between competing providers of different brands of
operator services at the Remote End -- maybe a useful scenario if the
public safety departments are defunded in your area. Other 9XX numbers
in the following ranges could be good to test with in most countries:
901-910
914-918
920-932
934-976
978-989
Lots of countries use 1XX numbers. ABC is configurable. It is up to you.
Please consult your local numbering plan rules before making changes.
You might even decide to ABC-enable several different outbound numbers --
nothing in ABC limits you to 3-digit numbers! Try 7/10/11 digits, etc.!
Question:
Wait, could ABC be used to help open up free market competition with
existing emergency operator service monopolies in given geographic areas,
without pre-loading private personal GPS address information for every
telecommuter in the USA up in to massive centralized databases of detailed
location directions to the nation's critical capital infrastructure ?
Answer:
Maybe but that is currently beyond the scope of this technical document.
Question:
Who will answer the phone when you dial 112/911/999/etc. ?
Answer:
Not a technical question, but with ABC it doesn't just have to be the PSAP.
(This is not legal advice -- nothing in ABC is -- talk to your attorney.)
Question:
How much delay does ABC usually introduce in routing the call ?
Answer:
Less than 100 milliseconds on modern hardware using Examples #1-#8. However,
Example #13 is much faster. Slightly aside, it is probably impossible to
completely eliminate delay because even if you were to tail the logs from
separate process(es), you would be introducing delay just by increasing the
verbosity of the logging itself in order to grep the needle that you are
looking for in the haystack of extra data. Additional log tailing problems
could arise if your log partition fills up and stops recording new data,
your separate process(es) crash and fail to restart, etc. Using dial plan
eliminates many of these concerns -- as long as your PBX is handling calls,
by way of extensions.conf/extensions.ael, then ABC can (mostly) keep working.
For Liberty,
