All about VoIP, SIP, VoLTE and dealing with ITSPs - Internet Telephony Service Providers, and the devices or software we use. It is an ☞ ؟⸮UNOFFICIAL⸮؟ tech' & ITSP info' focused room; we are unaffiliated with New Vector, nor any ITSP. ••• https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VoIP ° https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_telephony_service_provider ° ENUM "Telephone number mapping" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ENUM#System_details ° https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NAPTR_record#Example ° https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E.164 ° https://enumquery.com/ ° https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asterisk_(PBX)#Derived_products ° https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trixbox#Similar_software_distributions ••• Some info' resources: https://www.voip-info.org/ ° A few test SIPs: https://thetestcall.blogspot.com/2012/08/the-test-numbers.html?m=1 ° A good info' Wiki, albiet for one ITSP: https://wiki.voip.ms/article/Welcome ° LinPhone Wiki Tags have RSS Feeds: https://wiki.linphone.org/xwiki/wiki/public/ ••• It is the responsibility of people posting i.e. links, to make certain such is in good faith believed to be topical, and for the poster to summarize and explain why it's topical. Otherwise Mod's may summarily remove such posts at their discretion. • This is NOT a General Chat. ° No need to introduce yourself, nor greet others; whereas "lurking"/idling is fine. - Go fill the scrollback with hi-hello ping-pong somewhere else like what has been the cesspit of #offtopic:matrix.org . Put your greetings within a topical message! — https://www.nohello.com/?m=0 — Such is not part of room norm's. Expression of gratitude IS part of the room norm' culture we foster, to re-normalize such. Reactions are generally okay, but no standalone greetings. ° And in i.e. our Tech' Rooms, the "brb" thing is NOT okay, nor letting us know of your status in a room message, nor changing your Display Name to show you are eating a piece of toast in a urinal. Basically NO ONE CARES, it's orthogonal/unrelated to whatever you are asking and doesn't help you solve that problem, plus just annoyingly wastes our time so we're less likely to answer! Matrix has improved things from 1988 when IRC is said to have been incepted. If you are in a room, you won't miss what happened when you are offline (unless you have an E2EE problem). So don't announce you are /away. But if you think you must,Matrix already has a Custom Status Message, shown i.e. in the userlist/memberlist, on Element-web, click your Avatar next to the textbox/textarea. Use THAT instead, for anyone who might care. There needs to be a modern Matrix update, but the concept has been around for a while: https://bisqwit.iki.fi/jutut/away.html ° "Don't ask to ask! Just ask." https://dontasktoask.com • It's just noise in the signal-to-noise thing and off-topic clutter in the scroll-back that serves no purpose in helping people help each other find answers. • Don't bring us some supposed solution and expect us to make it fit your problem. See: The XY Problem http://xyproblem.info/ ° Again, this just leads to BULLSHIT screen-clutter and useless chat. • Also, do not send new-messages in rapid-fire race-to-send IRC-style before finishing a thought. Your BFF-Jill is NOT in here. And EDIT instead of sending new- correction messages. If you would rather be on IRC, no one is stopping you. Edit, and on desktop/laptop/et cetera, use <shift>+<enter> instead of sending, and set the mobile client to not send on <enter>. CONSOLIDATE instead of leaving 30 messages in the scrollback, where 1 would do just fine. Practice sending well formed messages, or editing, in some other room, making your own if need be. Some have used #test:matrix.org but do NOT play with your "shiny new thing" up in here!!!

Expect us. ••• In rooms with RSS/Atom Feeds, the RSS 'Bot may provide very helpful info' at times, and offer discussion starters. We Mod's do not care if you dislike them. Disregard or /ignore them if you must. But no unappreciative, disruptive, malcontent Concern Troll FUD meta-chat (chat about the chat) is allowed; you can LEAVE and join the cesspit of #offtopic:matrix.org !!! • It is polite to ASK in the room BEFORE inviting someone into a Direct Chat Message. This is EXPECTED before inviting Mod's, and futile AFTER being banned. Can't behave in the room, we won't waste our time in an individual temper-tantrum time-out hand-holding fidget-spinner participation-trophy session.
