I believe the US and Canada use the same methods for voice services, maybe we could make it a North America list serv instead. Just some thoughts here

I do, however, appreciate the thought. I don't think the idea is to be "just for Canadians", but more as a forum for topics that relate to Asterisk in the Canadian environment. A very relevant example is the CRTCs deliberations on VoIP, which may have huge repercussions to Canadian Asterisk users, but is hardly relevant to the international version of the Asterisk-Users list. Bell and TELUS bashing might also be popular topics :-) I do agree that any subject that is not specific to the Canadian experience should remain in the international list. We are an international community; therein lies our power. Anyhow, I signed up, and am planning to start a thread about the CRTC VoIP deliberations (and the generous act performed there by Jeff Pulver), something I wouldn't feel was appropriate on Asterisk-Users. Time will tell how many topics there are to discuss. The way I see it, a Canadian mailing list will be no different than our country itself: visitors will always be welcome. -- Jim Van Meggelen [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- No virus found in this outgoing message.
