Discussion: VoIP User Group Austin Texas USA

Would the user group be open for anyone to attend? I'm one half of a telecommunications recruiting team and we'd like to attend . Any day works for us we'll keep checking the website for updates

Ok.. we have interest.. Shall we get started?

Greetings, I'm President of the Association For Community Networking http://www.afcn.org. (A volunteer driven organization.) Several of us are very committed to promoting VoIP.

We'll be convening "Open Space Austin" at the end of April, to forge a strategic agenda for 5 sectors of Community ICT: Community Wireless, Media, Networking, Technology and Informatics. I'll have more info available in a few days,but I would love to have those who are interested and experienced in VoIP attending.

Also, I am interested in forming or finding a VoIP SIG in Chicago or Illinois, and would love to here of your experience and that of Atlanta.

Regards,

MM

Myself and many of my staff would be interested in participating in a local VUG here in Austin and can provide sponsorship in the form of a meeting place in our facility and hosting a site. We use Asterisk on a global basis (thus the Chicago phone number below).(:biggrin:)

I run a VoIP Special Interest Group here in Atlanta. Perhaps I could be of some assistance to you. We got off the ground last year and I can let you know how we did it. I also may be able to help with speakers and sponsors etc that we have had/used here in Atlanta.

In exchange, I want to find out more about what is happening with the VoIP scene in Austin.
