The GNU (define) Telephony stack is out and aiming to provide users of proprietary VoIP (define) stacks with a free software alternative.

The GNU Telephony stack is backed by support from Tycho Softworks, whose owner is also the maintainer of GNU Bayonne, one of the key components of the stack.

The GNU Telephony stack includes a long list of GNU-sponsored telephony related applications. GNU (which is a recursive acronym for GNU is not UNIX) is an effort sponsored by the Free Software Foundation.

The Telephony stack includes the GNU Bayonne telecommunications application server, the Troll ip/pstn gateway packages, the GNU RTP (define) stack, the Open H.323 stack and the GNU Gatekeeper H.323 call server. The GNU Telephony stack also supports SIP (define) byway of PartySIP. Drivers for Sangoma and Voicetronix are also part of the mix.
