Yep, usable legs that have media relayed through that same Asterisk  
instance with an MOS of better than 3.2.  :-)

Whoever gets to that mark first can have a Morton's or Ruth's Chris  
steak (or lobster, or salad, or whatever) as a reward - I have no  
problem with that incentive.  I'll even throw in a good bottle of  
wine.  Whatever city Astricon happens to be in, I'll find a good place  
to get the meal that year if someone meets the challenge.

PS: Yes, this is for Asterisk on commodity hardware, not for a hairpin- 
shaped RTP relay program, or a carrier switch, or an SBC with DSPs in  
it, or some other software program or hardware monstrosity.  I'm sure  
10k channels can be reached by a number of different methods, but I'm  
only rewarding _Asterisk_ solutions, folks!
