New Features in Exchange 2010 beta

NET Whitepapers available on discussUC.com

A friend of mine from NET Australia flicked me the following on Monday – I’ve just not had a chance to put it up.

Today NET Australia has made its most popular whitepapers available at discussUC.com.  The white papers cover a range of topics such as:

  • SIP Trunking
  • Directory Based Call Routing
  • Enabling Resilient, Secure, and High Availability Voice Services in Microsoft OCS Deployments
  • Key Success Factors for Microsoft UC Implementations

NET Australia has made these papers available through discussUC.com as it is the largest subscribed Unified Communications websites in the region, with contributions from thousands of members worldwide.

Great initiative NET.  Thanks for contributing to the community!  (not to mention making such great products in the first place)

Join our Melbourne Colleagues on DiscussUC.com

I had a tip from Dean Howarth, one of the convenors of our sister group in Melbourne.  They are directing their members to the forums on DiscussUC.com.  In the interest of building a bit of community around Australian UC users and IT pros – it would be great to see our members participating too.

There is a Microsoft specific UC forum here – but the wider forums have a lot of interesting content and I would recommend having a dig around.
