My business partner and I will be releasing a prototype of a product in a
short time with an automated calling component in it.  It will be openly
available for download and we will be looking for feedback and other parties
interested in this domain.

One of the technologies it uses is asterisk-java.

Well, indeed, astersik was really easy to compile and set up on the Fedora  
Core 4 distro that was installed on the workstation I got assignedto.  
Unfortunately, troubles came when I made my first tests with Java. Fedora  
uses GCJ and not SUN's Java, so I got issues when trying to connect to a  
MySQL server with JDBC.

So I'm still looking around to find a good distro for Java developpement.  
I gave myself a few days to look around and test a few ones, starting with  
SuSE, tomorrow (wish me luck :P)

Considering the Apps I'm gonna build, well, it goes from company PBX  
(usual VoIP phone routing and call management) to brand new developpement  
for the same company wich offers software solution for "bank-to-bank"  
communications.

Next big project is to build an automated calling system for those banks.  
So they can issue calls to their debitors to ask for paiments. All this  
will include some Text To Speech. I still need to look around and find a  
good TTS technology to use.
