I think this is an unfair assessment -- just because we
need to check our egos at the door does not mean we're
disagreeable to making asterisk faster in some cases by
using hardware DSP's from a company of disputed quality. 
My guess is that many people (including me) are just as
interested in seeing the answers to the questions you seek,
however my guess is very few people have the required
experience with the quicknet cards to take a stab at
fielding the question.

Simply stating "Oh, nobody's answering my question, and
meanwhile people are engaging in bigotry on the side, this
must mean nobody wants to help me" is a fallacy.  Some
people very much like to help, just can't speak
authoritatively on the subject (myself included.)

Finally, if Bayonne does what you need it to do better than
Asterisk, then you're more than welcome to say so.  Perhaps
we need to evaluate what Bayonne has that Asterisk does not
which makes this better, and share ideas between the
projects.  However, what you seem to be doing is pouting,
which often does nothing but raise the ire of the people
who put hours of work into making your life just a little
easier.
 
Just food for thought there.  Open source ceases to be a
fun hobby when all you hear from people is "THIS SUCKS I'M
LEAVING UNSUBSCRIBE ME!!~!!"!@!$"

Once again, back to my hole...

Pete

I am trying to make a proof of concept here (I am using
quicknet because 
it is all I have that does hardware DSP). So I have been
asking quistions 
but I have not gotten any technical answer, just opinions.

And yes I almost got screwed too. But I made sure I asked
them in advanced 
if G729 will work on linux, and I did find there business
practices 
unfair. I have tried to make it clear to them.

I have done this in embedded systems so it is no rocket
science, but I was 
trying to see if I should just use bayonne or if the
asterisk community is 
open to ideas. I know I wont be missed!!

Regards
