Re: xAP SwitchBoard beta 2 released

[Kevin Hawkins <lists@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Just to let people know that the updated xAPTel that supports a lot of
the new features in beta 2 of switchboard should arrive by the weekend.
I will post a message here to let people know where.   Just got the
docs, installer and a a bit of tidying of the UI to do.

This  release will be Meteor / Pegasus focussed for CID, UK modem
support will follow shortly  although a modem can be used as a dialler
if desired. Dual Meteors (two lines) are supported as is Skype with
support for both Skype IN and Skype OUT PSTN/IP based calls.
