Here's my best shot for now:

http://svn.digium.com/svn/asterisk/trunk/contrib/upstart/asterisk.user.conf

Installing upstart on Debian Unstable seems to be something for the
brave ('apt-get install upstart' and write explicitly "Yes, do as I
say!" when prompted so, as you remove the essential package sysvinit).

It also seems that Debian does not ask for upstart scripts for daemons
in this release cycle. So for now I tested the script by copying the
file to:

  /etc/init/asterisk.conf

(Note the different path), and then made sure that the init.d service
won't get in my way:

  /etc/init.d/asterisk stop
  mv /etc/init.d/asterisk /etc/init.d/asterisk_

This still makes the init.d script available, but makes the links from
the runlevel directories invalid for automatic startup (FIXME: does
insserv automatically regenerate them?)

Does Ubuntu actually use upstart scripts for services?

What happens if you have both /etc/init.d/asterisk and
/etc/event.d/asterisk.conf ?

Fedora folks, this is relevant for you as well.
