The astlinux interface does little to help configure the Asterisk PBX....
for dialplan, extensions, trunks, etc. it is all manual editing of the .conf
files.  For power users this is great, but does make it harder than it could
be.

I have used the Asterisk GUI and it has its own set of issues.  There
doesn't seem to be much investment in it by Digium either.

Astlinux does need a GUI for Asterisk PBX configuration.  In my option the
astlinux team should not try and write their own, but should pick an
existing one and integrate it (as an optional package).
