QUESTION about Orecx #95

Closed jmrbcu closed 2 years ago

jmrbcu commented 2 years ago

Hello, I was looking at the Orecx web page, in the open-source section: https://www.orecx.com/open-source/ and the project the referenced on GitHub is this one: https://github.com/voiceip/oreka and not the one they own: https://github.com/OrecX/Oreka So, my question is, which one is the upstream right now. Yours has support for some stuff they don't have but as I can see this repo is not in sync with the original one (from Orecx). Is that a type in their webpage?

Hi @jmrbcu

This repo has been built over the OrecX/Oreka, and has major features + security fixes over the original repo and offers binary releases.

I often at times do merge in any fix that happens upstream but their last few commits broke the build pipeline, hence I am yet to make a fix for that.

jmrbcu commented 2 years ago

Yes, but what about them (Orecx) referencing this project (https://github.com/voiceip/oreka) as the open-source one and not their own, also open-source (https://github.com/OrecX/Oreka)? Please, look at: https://www.orecx.com/open-source/, where the link to GitHub is.

Here is the snippet from their website:

VoIP ready free voice call recording softwareOreka

Oreka GPL is a free, VoIP-ready, open source call recording software, which can capture and retrieve calls via a browser-based interface. Downloaded for free, the Oreka GPL open-source voice call recording software is the only free open source recording software on the planet that can be downloaded in just 30 minutes and requires no maintenance.

Well, I can be only super happy about this :) It's more probably because this repo has more features than their one!

jmrbcu commented 2 years ago

Just go and check it out, I think it is a typo but not sure. That said, it is nice to be mentioned there. I also have my own repo based on both, this one and theirs with the best of both (only for OrkAudio, I don't use OrkTrack/OrkWeb) + some other private stuff and bug fixes I will be open-sourcing soon. As I said before in another issue, I am planning to move away from Autotools and add CMake support to be fully independent of the build system they use.

Sure will do.

Btw, I have just merged changes from their repo #25, so this repo should be up to date with the upstream.

You would be willing to create a PR so that everyone can benefit from your fixes?

Regarding CMake, I think that would be a really good improvement, both in terms of maintainability and build time.

Nice, I still have to pull those changes to mine. I will probably do it today after I finish with some features I am adding.

Some of the features are closed-source, but some are not; I am negotiating to release them!

That is a work in progress, but as soon as I finish with it, I will make a pull request

👍 Looking forward to your contributions :)

PS: Closing this ticket for now.
