I've first browsed the asterisk source code before posting here... Some 
part of the asterisk code may indeed be useful (as least as a 
reference), but I don't think I can make asterisk a simple iax 
proxy/switch just by editing the makefile... Asterisk is really made to 
be a PBX and it deeply works like this. For example, the iax part of it 
seems to need a zaptel module to work properly (at least the dummy one). 
Indeed, Asterisk show me error/warning message when I run it without 
ztdummy loaded. In my projet, I only need to use the "net part" of iax, 
no audio/media management, only pure point to point routing/transfer. I 
even doesn't need iax trunk function. That's why I don't think asterisk 
can be build as a simple iax proxy/switch without pretty heavy 
modification of the source code. Isn't the project I need help for 
simple enough to be started from scratch (with the use of libiax) ?
