Thanks Simon. Nabeel, we will be using Asterisk for rural telecentres, the idea is that we will be deploying an asterisk system in small cities/towns where there isn't (or limited) telecom access. Villagers who want can have a voice mail box and can send voice e-mails. We will be implementing this system in a pilot site in August or so, if you are interested you can follow our work from the second link provided by Simon. There is a lot of interest in French Africa, I know of groups in Togo, Cote d'Ivoire and Mali working on asterisk projects.
