AstriCon U.S. to be held October 24-27 in Dallas

Sokol & Associates, a provider of Asterisk based products and services, and Digium, the creator of Asterisk and pioneer of open source telephony, will be hosting the 2006 Fall AstriCon conference from October 24-27, 2006 at the Westin Park Central Hotel in Dallas, Texas. AstriCon, the official conference of Asterisk, the industry's first open source PBX, includes a series of tutorials, a trade show, a user conference and a developer summit.

Asterisk is used by over 1/2 million users world-wide to address a variety of different business- and carrier-class, Linux-based PBX needs. As the third AstriCon to be held in the United States, conference segments have been updated to address the most current Asterisk issues. Topics will discuss the latest changes to Asterisk, clustering, high availability, and more and will address audiences varying from beginner to advanced users and developers.

"This year's AstriCon conference in Dallas marks the conference's third anniversary, which we view to be a success for the open source industry," said Mark Spencer, creator of Asterisk and founder of Digium. "In the last three years, Asterisk has gained tremendous notoriety and we've seen our community and business growth explode. We are looking forward to celebrating many milestones at this year's conference."

Mark Spencer will be giving a keynote address entitled "Asterisk: World Domination in 5 Easy Steps." Mark created Asterisk in 1999 when he launched Linux Support Services (now Digium). He is the main contributor to Asterisk and the Digium hardware that supports Asterisk in connections to the PSTN.

"We anticipate the largest AstriCon turnout yet this Fall," said Steven Sokol, president of Sokol & Associates, the meeting organizer. "Attendees are guaranteed great learning and networking possibilities"
