Happy New Year!
This is the greeting, which is likely said and heard many times during the days.
It's a good tradition and time when we may summarize activity done during the previous year and setup some goals for the new year.

The project continued to evolve during 2009, despite of the global financial crisis and resulted difficulties.
There were scheduled and periodically released five versions of UniMRCP, which introduced new features, provided bug fixes and ensured stability.
Integration with well know open source telephony platforms, utilization by several corporates, support contracts, custom development options and my strong desire keep the project going. This makes me think about the first major release of UniMRCP in 2010, which would be another value added release indicated a certain milestone. I'll follow up with the next 0.9 version during the days and come up with a few suggestions, proposals thereafter during this month.

Also it seems I've got another good tradition to polish the website of the project a bit during the holidays. Please checkout the new face.

Let it be a successful and prosperous year for all of us!
