For a full story on Linux telephony, H323, OpenH323, and related developments, see
- http://www.linuxtelephony.org/
- A rapidly changing site that's trying to keep up and coordinate developments
in Linux telephony. New applications and news daily. Very useful.
- http://www.openh323.org/
- Home of OpenH323:
``The OpenH323 project aims to create a full featured, inter-operable, Open Source
implementation of the ITU H.323 teleconferencing
protocol that can be used by personal developers and commercial users without charge.''

- Makers of the PhoneJACK/LineJACK hardware.
- http://www.openphone.org/
- It seems like it's another Quicknet-sponsored site, with a declared intention of
being ``dedicated to the development of high-quality, low-density
internet telephony solutions for as many platforms as possible''. Some useful
general information.
- http://enfm.utcc.utoronto.ca/c2/voip/links.html
- OpenPhone*CA is a University of Toronto based exploratory project for VoIP; it is
now stale, but the collection of links is still instructive, if a bit formal.
- http://www.willamowius.de/openh323gk.html
- OpenH323 Gatekeeper project by Jan Willamowius.
``A Gatekeeper is needed to make internet telephony work with symbolic
names (aliases) and telephone numbers instead of IP numbers.''
- http://www.speakfreely.org/
- Multi-OS software-only VoIP package, Open Source.
- http://www.ctdepot.com/
- The `competition'. This site is dedicated to Internet Telephony products, mostly
commercial, brand-name, and proprietary-OS based. Some general tutorial information
is useful, and it gives you a sense of which way the non-GPL world is going.
- http://www.slackware.com/
- Slackware, the distribution with an attitude. Patrick Volkerding puts up images of
his latest CDROM releases on this site; download and burn a self-booting CD.
