I think there are others who will look at asterisk as well once it fixes up a few things: 

    • scalability 
    • redundancy/reliability 
    • user interface 
    • forwarding from secondary lines. no, wait, that works. nevermind.

It will be interesting to see how VoIP continues to evolve in Oregon. K12 got together about a month ago to talk about how we could all move to Asterisk. I wasn't very interested at the time, but if Cisco continues to out price there stuff, it will force the issue. Just like moving from Unity to exchange. 

Cisco can either look at pricing....... or look at customers leaving.

There was an FAQ out there that I either read from this list and/or posted to the list. Basically, it says that future upgrades will cost the same as purchasing new. I think Cisco is trying to make it hard for you to say no to UCSS. 

Basically, the cost of an upgrade will be the same as two years of UCSS or something like that. 

I think they're also trying to make CUWL very attractive as well. Soon, I don't think we'll have any option. First they'll make it ridiculously expensive then they'll retire the option since no one is getting it. It will either be CUWL w/ UCSS or buy new each time. 

Back to PBX days. ;)

Would you drop just UCCS or ESW as well?

Historically I've been a X.1 release kind of guy as I have been nailed on some X.0 releases (UCCx 4.0 -- 23hr upgrade). 

But since Cm went to the appliance model, are there the same fears of moving to a 8.0 release so long as it's a 8.0.3 type release? 

<Cisco guys plug your ears> 

I'm thinking since I have subscription and smartnet getting onto the 8.x train and then not subscribing next year. 

what are others thoughts?

Last I heard was they were looking at 18 months between major versions. So, if v7.0 was out last summer, then you're looking at sometime in Jan 2010 for v8 (of CUCM anyways). I don't thing the .1 releases are as tightly controlled. 

There was an EFT for Connection 8.0 not to long ago, and it's typically 6 to 8 months between EFT and release. So that would coincide with a Jan-Apr release of v8.

Any idea when CM 8.0 is supposed to be out? what about 8.1? 

I'm just planning my next upgrade? 

Has anyone heard about when UCCx 8.0 is supposed to be out? 

Thanks
