I suspect The IAXy is a low priority for Digium right now. Their biggest concern right now is most likely the challenges associated with the increasing demand for their T1/E1 hardware. Taking their production capabilities to the next level is probably driving them insane right now. And no doubt many folks on backorder are screaming for their gear.
I'm sure at some point they'll be looking into what an IAXy2 needs to be, I just want to be sure they don't miss a few of the subtleties that become a big deal in massive deployments. Asterisk and IAX will revolutionize change telecom - the IAXy, by virtue of it's being a part of that pedigree, must be held to a standard of no less than excellence.
