Our aim is to make it easy to keep your system compliant with US laws, but not impede you if you’re not subject to US laws. I’ll be sharing more details later this month, but in general, the requirements of the new US laws center around being able to dial 911 directly (with no prefix), having administrators notified when someone dials emergency services, and making sure that outbound emergency calls have a valid e911-enabled DID.
I know that the mirror server has had issues again today, and I apologize for that. Let me just say that if it were as easy as just moving “that one up a few weeks”, I certainly would want that too. Please rest assured that it’s a priority for the FreePBX development team.
I haven’t seen much of those sorts of issues in the past few months, but I’ll certainly keep that in mind.
I’ll pass this suggestion on to the team that’s building the videos, thanks.
