miconda.eu

While owning the domain miconda.eu for quite some time, never found the time to set it up. With the winter holidays giving sort of a break, I pointed blog.miconda.eu to my blog (here) at by-miconda.blogspot.com.

The main domain miconda.eu is pointed to about.me/miconda . I plan to make more use of this domain (email?!?), let's see if 2016 brings more spare time ...

Enjoy the winter holidays!

New Kamailio Module: cfgt

Victor Seva from Sipwise has published a new module forKamailio, named cfgt. The module is to be part of the next major release of Kamailio – v4.4.0, expected to be out on early spring of 2016.
The module is useful for unit testing, to compare the results of the Kamailio configuration file routing logic. The report of execution is in JSON format, making it easy to analyse. Among the contents of the report can be the values for variables used in the configuration file.
You have to make your test scenario (e.g., using sipp), send the traffic to Kamailio and then check if the report contains expected results.
The documentation of the module is available at:


    The functionality of the module is rather small by now, but Victor is committed to add more in the near future, including examples of how to use it. Stay tuned and keep an eye on kamailio.org for updates!

    Proposing a New Logo for the Kamailio Project

    During the Kamailio IRC level meeting this summer, a need for refreshing the logotype of the project was discussed. The current (embedded in the upper right corner of kamailio.org main page) is based on the one used for during the former OpenSER name of the project, with changes of the text to reflect the SIP Router and Kamailio names, somehow not longer very balanced, lacking good quality and high resolution graphics. The participants agreed that a refresh would be better than keeping that version.
    One option was to reuse the graphics from Kamailio World Conference logo, simply with Kamailio name. It was used even before as alternative logo by various peoples and companies.
    We now want to finish this process and we considered also the possibility of a new logo design. Thanks to Asipto and their deal with 99Designs, we ran a design contest and see if someone proposes an interesting logotype. Based on the result of the contest, followed by discussions on management group and the people interested in updating the logotype, we are proposing a new logo for the project:
    kamailio-logo-2015
    During the next days we are expecting feedback from community, especially if it looks too similar with other logos they know or if they like it or not. Based on that, a final decision will be taken and either we will switch to the new proposed logo or keep looking for a new one.
    Join the discussion about the new logo on users mailing listsr-users@lists.sip-router.org .
    2D and 3D variants in different formats, as well as some combinations with few pictures, can be found at:
    As a preview, a few variants are embedded here:

      Kamailio Syntax Highlighting for the Atom Editor

      Atom is an open source editor developed by Github. One of its useful features is ability to preview the markdown files while editing them. The Kamailio source tree includes a few such markdown files (e.g., README.md in the root folder). They are nicely displayed when browsing the GIT repository at github.com.
      Another feature would be auto-completion suggestion based on the content of the edited file, so, for example, if you define a route block, then its name appears when adding the statement to execute that route.
      A syntax highlighting package for kamailio.cfg has been made available at:
      Information about how to install it are available in the readme at the above link.
      For now, it does rather basic matching of configuration file elements, still relevant to make them easier to spot. Contributions to enhance it are more than welcome!

      Enjoy!
