or perhaps can be avoided with little effort, it's still a problem. Your argument is more like the classic "it's not a bug, it's a feature".

Well, I'll jump in too...

If I had to 'reload' my postfix server, or my dovecot server, or my samba server all the time, I'd be wondering what the heck is the PROBLEM that is causing me to have to constantly reload (or restart) them.

I agree that if there IS a problem with Asterisk that causes one to have to reload it often simply when making normal day-to-day changes (adding phones/users, etc), then I would certainly call that an Asterisk problem, but from what I've read, I don't think that is the case.

Still, I'm new, and haven't even installed Asterisk yet - I'm not a 'phone' guy, and I've been driving my phone guy crazy trying to get him to start playing with it, so that we can start replacing our current system with it and some Polycom phones

First thing that comes to mind, what if we decided to change a non user setting in sip.conf?
You're reaching. You said you NEED to reload all the time, that this is a MAJOR issue, a deal breaker. So surely you must have experienced this downtime to be so sensitive to it. What did you do on your PRODUCTION system that required constant reloads to cause the current behavior to be such a big problem?

Honestly; if you're changing a non-user setting in sip.conf you're going to do that very, very infrequently, and you'd do it during a low volume time.

You said this is a major problem. I'm calling you on it. I'm interested in making Asterisk robust and highly-available too, but I'm not making up scenarios in order to launch complaints and verbal assaults against the project in order to feed my inflated ego and try to get things done "my way."

If you have a specific problem, let's hear it.
