> 
> 
>  Please join us Thursday October 23 for a demonstration and overview
of
>  Asterisk, a Free Software implementation of a telephone switch.
> 
>  What is a switch?  Well, it's the essential core of a phone company.
>  It's also what lets you dial 42 on your phone at work and be
connected to
>  the person who knows everything. Wait, that's you?
> 
>  Paul Charles Leddy will be guiding us through a technical overview of
how
>  Asterisk works, rather than an overview of how to use it.  This talk
will
>  be of interest to anyone interested in how a PBX works, as well as
those
>  interested in building their own Asterisk PBX.
> 
>  We'll start with a look at the various things Asterisk does, and work
our
>  way through setting up extensions, VoIP, SIP, IAX, and call routing.
>
