It has been. Over, and Over, and Over again. On here, on -dev and on IRC. Many times. [openpbx design changes] > Hmmm I don't know.

It's been rumoured that ./configure will never be in Asterisk, and if that's a dealbreaker, then yeah... I guess you're screwed. My personal opinion is that all the little shitty things in Asterisk need to take priority to newfangled hoo-hah. CVS HEAD development needs to center around fixing the bugs and inconsistencies and THEN go back to features. It'll never happen, though. :-( branching for 1.2 and doing it there isn't good enough, IMO. There needs to be a long, boring time of development where the odd shit gets squashed by the core smart people. > Indeed. Coupled with a bad day, it's incredibly sad.

It lets people know that you're passionate about the subject. -A. _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation sponsored by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Users mailing list Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
