CTI論壇(ctiforum)6月8日消息(記者 李文杰):著名的Asterisk開源通信項(xiàng)目讓全世界很多公司用戶受益,同時(shí)帶動(dòng)了整個(gè)企業(yè)通信領(lǐng)域的高速成長,多如牛毛的中國公司開始發(fā)布所謂自主研發(fā)的呼叫中心,PBX設(shè)備軟件?墒,很多中國公司不僅僅沒有回饋開源,而且居然大大方方地發(fā)布了自己的Digium語音卡,讓Asterisk項(xiàng)目維護(hù)廠家Digium非常氣憤,這樣的行為嚴(yán)重傷害了整個(gè)開源項(xiàng)目的發(fā)展,同時(shí)對(duì)其項(xiàng)目造成了嚴(yán)重的誤導(dǎo)。通過無測試無保障的產(chǎn)品,安裝在開源freepbx平臺(tái),修改logo則標(biāo)榜為自主研發(fā)的IPPBX。為此,官方專門成立了一個(gè)部門對(duì)中國公司的克隆卡,克隆產(chǎn)品進(jìn)行清剿,淘寶是開源克隆卡的集散地,是這次打擊的重點(diǎn)目標(biāo)。

Without Contributions,Where Would Open Source Be?
Thanks to the Asterisk community,its popularity has grown worldwide。The downside of this explosive growth is the uprising of Asterisk “clone” cards manufactured in China and available to unassuming online。It's extremely important to understand the various types of card manufacturers,why it matters which type you purchase from,and what you can do to report them:
There are 3 types of card manufacturers:
- Legitimate card manufacturers: These manufacturers use their own technology designs and sell the mtoconsumers under their own brand name。
- Cloners:A big step down from that includes manufacturers who copy out dated card designs from legitimate companies(such as Digium),copy them,and then sell them under their own brand name。
- Counterfeiters:This category includes those who manufacture replica cards and claim or imply they are authentic Digium cards。
