but it would be interesting to hear some short anecdotes about how you
in the Asterisk community are thriving, or at least surviving, by
virtue of the benefits of Open Source. I find that real-world
examples are worth more than all of the bullet points in the world,
and timely stories from the community would be more interesting than
hearing me prattle on.
What "economic downturn"?
I'm sick and tired of hearing this mantra.

Perhaps there isn't a downturn in a country with more sheep than people,
but MOST of the rest of the world is headed downhill rapidly.
This could easily turn into a decade long period, with few having any
real answers.
If people are out of a job, they can't buy much of anything, and
telephone and computer services certainly go by the wayside long before
food and shelter
