asterisk users - Apr 2004 - Network Magazine 04/04/04 Article pg 19 (Free IP Telephony PBXs?)

* Brethren,

It's a sad day in our community.  Please join me in a moment of silence for
the death of responsible journalism.  Silence.....................good
enough.

This article goes on to tell about Pingtel's announcement of forming the
"first open source community aimed at creating SIP based servers".

Yipeeeeeee!

I am embarrassed and appalled with the lack of recognition or mention of all
the tremendous work in this "already existing community".  I'm
writing a
letter to the editor and encourage all of you to do the same.

Mark Spencer,

I caught your presentation at the Linux-Kongress
http://graphics.cs.uni-sb.de/VCORE/recordings.html .  I want to personally
thank you for validating all that I have been doing to promote Asterisk to
anyone and everyone who will take the time to listen.  When I talk about it
and show off working systems in action, people get excited and are quite
impressed.  Having your 30 min presentation to go along with my demo
increases my credibility 10 fold.

Thank you all for contributing to this great community.

JR

I'm not surprised.  My wife is an editor at on of CMP's more cluefull
publications, and, even there, she's fighting against general stupidity
evey day.

Most journalists, esp. tech journalists, are pretty clueless.

Chris.
