[kwlug-disc] Meeting Monday: A User Journey; VoIP Security (April 2018)

Wed Apr 11 10:28:09 EDT 2018

Dang, shame that.

I was hoping to review the last 15 minutes of the Telium presentation where
some decent insights were voiced thanks to some really great questions from
the members.
I don't know the member's name, but I shared his frustration with the
extended "be afraid, be very afraid" 30+ minutes preamble from the Telium
guy, surely didn't leave much time for nuts and bolts coverage of
mitigation measures.

At this point I am hopeful that some member had downloaded the podcast and
might accidentally forward it to me directly:-)

My knee-jerk reaction would be to spread the audio to any member who
requests it(if I had it) as I think Telium should be aware of the nature of
KWLUG's talks and the fact that sessions are recorded to be placed online
for members' access. I am still feeling a pissy about the fact that some
much valuable time was spent doing the extended "be afraid" segment and the
recurring bashing of FreePBX, deservedly, or not.

Loved this April session though, Sandeep's presentation was really quite
well-done.

Thanks,

Ron Singh
