First.. I think it would be a great idea for Stephan to cover this subject at 
one of our meetings
Two.. I can donate a server for Blaine's "better" mouse trap with Trixbox or 
Freepbx loaded...NP (I would
also host it but I don't have a spare IP address)
Simon is right this is a subject that has been negleted for a long time.
