[Asterisk-Users] Sasquatch, the Loch Ness Monster, UFOs and...

[John Todd]

Mythical Asterisk Creatures, oft-discussed, rarely seen:

1) An "advanced" graphical user interface

2) An IAX2 hardware device

3) A Radius CDR report module

4) A live-method, robust SQL-based dialplan

5) LDAP/SQL/Radius authentication for SIP phones

6) Robust R2 signalling support

7) Multilingual language recordings of all existing * .gsm files

8) Free exchange of PSTN gateways in a centralized routing arbiter model

9) Speech recognition support


Care to add your own unicorns to the list?  I make no judgement nor 
do I cast aspersions on any of these items, but I seem to recall 
seeing comments about "I'm working on..." or "It would be really 
great if..." on all of these without seeing real evidence on any of 
them other than talk.  The only well-remembered myth I can say for 
certain that has been dispelled is the SCCP channel driver, and that 
has been moved out of "Loch Ness" status to "peer-reviewed" status.
