Mobicents Metamorphosis

The mobicents team meet at Munich on 16th September 2008 to discuss about the road map. Mobicents has transformed from just a JSLEE server to a multi dimensional Telco middle-ware platform in very short span of time, to be precise 1 year. The 5 days face to face meet with all the core developers produced quite useful discussion on how to proceed with various standards on Telco middle-ware. All the roadmap's and presentations are recorded at http://groups.google.com/group/mobicents-public/web/mobicents-dev-team-meeting---munich-september-2008
