Star2Star is a brilliant business model. As advertised, it truly bridges the gap between open-source and business grade implementation for SMBs.
One question that I am not able to answer is that if StarBox-X is open-source, why isn't the Web configuration GUI that the commercial Star2Star uses is available to AstLinux?
As I understand it, StarBox-X is open-source "version" of the commercial Star2Star minus all the service offerings by Star2Star such as monitoring, IP Trunks, etc.

Kris,
Thanks for the detailed reply. It sounds like you are helping form a
mini-Fonality for the small business segment. I hope you don't mind the
comparison. It looks like a nice product/service offering.
