This is a long list and therefore will be difficult for a novice to choose the right voip software. Can someone post which is at present the most recomended VOIP program for Linux? I mean, globally, considering pros and cons? Surely there should be one standing ahead of others. I will be waiting to see a list ranking programs from best to less recomended.

However there are a few fairly important Open Source VoIP projects you are missing. Some off the top of my head are: a) FreeSWITCH (www.freeswitch.org): an open source telephony platform designed to facilitate the creation of voice and chat driven products scaling from a soft-phone up to a soft-switch. It can be used as a simple switching engine, a PBX, a media gateway or a media server to host IVR applications using simple scripts or XML to control the callflow. b) FreePBX (www.freepbx.org): a free software PBX that you can download and run. It is feature-rich and easy-to-use. c) Elastix (www.elastix.org): A full blown PBX in a box that is an alternative to Tribox. d) PBX in a Flash (pbxinaflash.net): If you've longed for the good ol' days of Asterisk@Home, welcome back to the new steroid-enhanced version. PBX in a Flash is the Lean, Mean Asterisk Machine designed to meet the needs of hobbyists as well as business users and VARs. You'll have a high-performance turnkey Asterisk PBX that's easy to upgrade with dozens of add on scripts to provide virtually any feature you can imagine. e) Asterisk Documentation Project (http://www.asteriskdocs.org/): Download a free PDF release of the second iteration of O'Reilly's "Asterisk: The future of Telephony".

But there's a GNU/Linux operating system and this OS as many distributions. :P Good list. I will definitely check some of the links. :) «Have you tried lately to figure out which Linux operating system you’d like to use?»
