Oh, and it goes without saying (but I'm going to write it anyway), but an
alternative to relying on randos
is to get a Digium support contract. It's much more reliable than hoping
someone with spare time and a
working knowledge of the Asterisk source feels like they need a little
extra money. But probably also
more expensive.
