Summary:                    Please remove IAXy's firmware from the main tarball
Description: 
It'd be nice if the IAXy firmware was removed from the main tarballs. After
the removal of iLBC and FPM MoH, it's the only part in the Asterisk
tarballs that is covered by a non-free license.

Plus, not a lot of users should be using that firmware these days and
replicating the same firmware in each and every release is useless
duplication of information.

(kpflemming semi-agreed to this on IRC, this bug is mostly for reference &
tracking)

Remove the IAXy firmware from Asterisk.

The firmware can now be found on downloads.digium.com, where the rest of
our
binary downloads live.  This was the last part of our Asterisk tarballs
that
was considered non-free by Debian.  :-)
