Asterisk awakens open source love in telecom entrepreneur

,----[ Quote ]
| Fribush's previous company produced Web telephony software for the online 
| dating industry. When that business was sold in 2006, he started looking for 
| his next project and noticed an interesting trend. "We were looking at the 
| Asterisk movement, and we started looking at some of the momentum," Fribush 
| says. "It was a big disrupter. And we thought that one of the missing pieces 
| was a turnkey solution where the application was actually hosted." Fribush 
| partnered with his friend Michael Rand to launch Aretta 
| Communications. "That's really the start of my open source background. I've 
| really always been a Microsoft guy. You get converted when you see the power 
| of open source tools. Now it is the majority of our infrastructure."

Digium preps Asterisk Linux distribution

,----[ Quote ]
| "We developed our own GUI [which is] similar to Trixbox [distribution],
| but the purpose of AsteriskNow is to provide a distribution built
| around Asterisk technology so people can use it without the GUI," he
| said. "The GUI is the same as the Asterisk Appliance that looks
| like a Linksys router that runs Asterisk and has analogue ports."
