We have another timely topic for our call this week ... /Open Source 
Communications Options & Opportunities/.  Our guest presenter, Bill 
Rich, will discuss the growing set of open source choices available to 
institutions looking to implement VoIP.  We recently saw Bill present 
this topic at the ACUTA IP Summit in Baltimore, and thought this would 
be a great update topic for the SIG.

Guest Presenter - William J. Rich is the President and CEO of Pingtel 
Corp., which provides open source-based, SIP communications solutions
