A Community Update

The AGI stuff was mostly what I was referring to w/r/t your implementing NodeJS for performance reasons. It’s not optional, as one can’t do the install without node, and with the majority of our PBXs being still on EL6, this was a challenging proposition to say the least! Trying to get it installed – and stable – was just too much of a hassle, with too many changes needed. (EL7 is no problem of course, so newer installs are running 15 without issue, and I’m running tests on EL8 now, with everything looking good.) It wasn’t the different language that was a problem, but the requirement for those additional daemons. I realize that most users are happy to let FreePBX control their entire system and just install the distro, so I know I’m a minority voice; I just like to grumble about these things every now and then!
