Kamailio World 2018 – Participation Grants

Once again, we are committing to the program from the last years to give free event passes at next Kamailio World (May 14-16, 2018) to several people from academic environment (universities or research institutes – bachelor, master or PhD programs qualify) as well as people from underrepresented groups.
Kamailio has its origin in the academic environment, being started by FhG Fokus Research Institute, Berlin, Germany, evolving over the time into a world wide developed project, with an open and friendly community.
If you think you are eligible and want to participate, email to <registration [at] kamailio.org> . Participation to all the content of the event (workshops, conference and social event) is free, but you will have to take care of expenses for traveling and accommodation. Write a short description about your interest in real time communications and, when it is the case what is the university or the research institute you are affiliate to.
Also, if you are not a student, but you are in touch with some or have access to students forums/mailing lists, it will be very appreciated if you forward these details.
More information about Kamailio World Conference 2018 is available on the web site:

New Kamailio module: app_python3

A while ago app_python3 module was added to Kamailio’s GIT master branch (to be released as stable version 5.2.0 in several months), thanks to the development efforts of Anthony Alba.
Although it started from the old app_python, besides being implemented to work with Python3, the new modules added a lot of improvements, leveraging the Python3 architecture for better performances, as well as including the support for Python script reload at runtime via an RPC command (so no need to restart Kamailio — the feature was ported to app_python meanwhile). The readme of the module is available at:
Now all the Kemi interpreter modules can reload the SIP routing scripts without restarting Kamailio — it works for Lua, JavaScript, Python2/3 and Squirrel languages.
Happy SIP routing in Python3! You can learn more about the Kemi scripting languages at Kamailio World Conference 2018 — an workshop is dedicated to this topic!
