Justin,

  I think you need to lay off the coffee a little. After looking at Jeremy's post on eBay, the item he is selling was made from the freely available schematics that were put up on the Zapata Telephony site by yours truly Mark Spencer. If you have a problem with what Jeremy is selling, maybe you need to take this up with Mark since he is the one that GPL'd the board.

  If it is just an issue of Jeremy posting you the Digium site about a product that does the same as a digium board, then maybe we shouldn't allow anyone to post on the biz list that uses any type of digium software either for their business.

  If I were Digium, I think I would be very upset with your attack that is completely uncalled for and very unprofessional. Sounds like they need to hire better people over there if everyone is like you. (Which I know they aren't.)

Robert
