Some of the projects that are currently listed include: FreeSide Billing, PBX In A Flash and the BigBlueButton conferencing and collaboration suite. As a matter of fact, AsteriskExchange listings for open source projects are free. To qualify, projects must have a connection with Asterisk and they must be in a usable state (installable, ready to run). Digium is committed to helping our open source community grow, so if you have a project you would like to showcase, please fill out the "Get Listed" form.

At least we were willing to try it out and tweak it along the way to get to where it's at today. In the channel, it's just not called RHX anymore. My personal opinion, working on the project from the early stages, was that the channel ended up being a good direction. Something we learned along the way. Hopefully Digium can be successful with their attempt. Jason Red Hat learned a great deal from RHX. At least we were willing to try it out and tweak it along the way to get to where it’s at today.
