Yes, I sure that we'd certainly like to do something with you. I think the most interesting angle to take regarding your PBX, is about what value-add has drawn you to make the step from Ubuntu, across to Debian. Perhaps you could highlight what makes Debian/Ubuntu to be such a good building-block to start from for your solution. If you're also deployed the embedded product within any organisations; could you talk about how using Ubuntu indirectly (and perhaps not even knowing it!) has saved the entity money or improved their business. Perhaps for balance you could also discuss what parts of Ubuntu have _not_ worked well as those are also signs of places for improvement. Any intriguing photographs would be interesting aswell! It's good to hear about product! -Paul -- High on a tall bridge, surrounded by noisy lorries.

[ubuntu-marketing] Claros VoIP Teleserver: An Ubuntu-based PBX
Hello, I am one of the directors of Claros VoIP, a IT company based in Wales, UK. Are you interested in hearing about a up and coming Asterisk based PBX built upon Ubuntu for your weekly newsletter? It's a commercially oriented suite of management and interface software which dramatically increases the ease of use and functionality of an Asterisk based PBX. It's aimed at the SME market. We are mainly longtime Debian users but became converts to Ubuntu around the time of Hoary Hedgehog and use Dapper Drake (server) on our embedded solid-state PBX devices as well as the conventional server based versions. If you have any questions contact me by reply email or visit our website at the address below. Many thanks, -- Dan Ros Claros VoIP www.clarosvoip.com -- ubuntu-marketing mailing list ubuntu-marketing@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-marketing
