I’ve grown fairly accustomed to the fact that most Open Source projects tend to have a poor documentation. Sure, if you look at the code itself, you’ll find a plethora of code documentation, explaining how certain pieces of the code work, however, when it comes to operational documentation – that portion lacks tremendously.

I recently gave a presentation at the Amoocon convention, held in Rostock, Germany – about Asterisk and Amazon EC2. Below is a medium quality video of that presentation:

I really love the open source world, it always keeps us on our toes and always peeking around the closest corner, trying to understand what is the next step around. As I’m attending the last day of the Amoocon conference, located in Rostock, Germany – I came to the realization that while each project tries to present itself as the best choice – that isn’t always true. The multitude of projects and solution proves just one thing – there is no perfect solution.
