During Astricon 2004, we'll have the first Asterisk developer's meeting.

The Asterisk developer's meeting is a one day meeting with discussions, brainstorms and tests.

For each session, we need a white paper produced that outlines the topic to be discussed.
If controversial, several whitepapers on the same topic will be contributed. Please don't
make it hard to yourself - just write down your ideas and thoughts and submit then. If
needed, we will edit the document with you.

This is a list of suggested topics - please feel free to add topics. Topics will be jointly
reviewed by the Asterisk.org bug marshals and Digium developers.

Please observe that this meeting will be held in a very professional way, with a schedule
and a painful chairman that will make the meeting stay in order. We will not solve every
topic, but will be able to see pros, cons and discuss ways forward, maybe initiate some
work.

This is just a list of ideas - PLEASE feel free to suggest your own.

     * Channel specific discussions
           o SIP, SRTP and TCP/TLS
