This weekend I distributed very early releases of the new Apollo telephony integration server, the new Partisipate Qt desktop client, and the already mature Coventry calling server, to use for browser admin clients, generic sip devices, Babylon facility automation, and Partisipate desktop softphones. This will finally begin their co-development as a cohesive whole.

This constitutes a vision for unified facility communication and automation as long described on the Coventry wiki on codeberg. One goal is that facilities (homes, offices) will eventually have their very own interactive ai driven voice and chatbot. Another goal is fully local autonomous operation.

All project sources have been gathered on codeberg at https://codeberg.org/gnutelephony for development convenience. All active components are under FOSS licensing and open to public participation. The ideal target platform would be a sbc or embedded router running AlpineLinux or NetBSD from which all running services can be telephony, voice, and chat ai enabled.
