[Fwd: Re: [Asterisk-Users] Re: [Asterisk-doc] Conference hosting request for asterisk-doc]

[Martin List-Petersen]

I would say so, too.

The FWDnet thing was actually only meant for people who don't want to
use VoIP (even though firefly or iaxcomm should do it, worst case)

Besides ... FWDnet does IAX2 now :o) ..... that would be a
phone->sip->iax2 call :o) ... 

I should have the setup ready by tomorrow, if needed. If not needed,
than that's as good for me as anything else.
