PreViking Telephony Switching System

File Release Notes and Changelog

Release Name: 0.4.8

Notes: This release marks several new features including the BayonneDB CDR logging and the Callcentre code.

---

Changes: PreViking has now started to log all cdr records to a BayonneDB server rather than logging to a file on the switch's local filesystem. This allows multiple PreViking switches to store cdr records in a central repository. The protocol that BayonneDB uses allows for multicast and broadcast so BayonneDB servers can be replicated and so its not dependent on a single point of failure. PreViking also now has a Call Centre service that provides a queueing system for customers waiting to connect to a callcentre. Customers are given the chance to leave a message instead of waiting. The message is loaded to a given URL by HTTP PUT. The callcentre can be configured to have opening and closing times and days of the week when it is not opened. There have been some changes to the calling card and callback service to have more consitency in the options for trying the number again and for making follow on calls.
