I'm working on a "abstraction" toolset for asterisk, some screenshots :

some technical details :
- Fully based on a Postgresql DB (+/- 40 tables)
- Extensive use of macro's in the extensions.conf
- some little patches to the asterisk source (additions) to extend the
manager capability
- a layer between the manager port and the PGSQL written in C (to prevent
that each separate client would connect to the manager interface)
- some AGI scripts (written in C) to fulfill some needs which are not build
in asterisk for example :
redirect through drag&drop.
- A program (written in C) which extracts all the info from de Pgsql and
converts it to the needed * conf files upon request
- goal : >>everything<< works on Win32 clients : configuration, outlook
integration , panel programs, attendant program ... so we could sell a
standard box plug it to the PSTN network and the ethernet, install the
sotware on a W32 client and off they go without the explicit knowledge of
linux. the sound files (will be uploaded on a FTP on the box and copied to
the appropriate destination with the some program as one point above

I especially developed these toolset "arround" asterisk, so i do not need
the take in account the Asterisk license except for the patches which will
be published.

development status :
- First tests are positive
- Working on the last "big" point is the extended (graphical call router to
easily design IVR's)
- Working on a .NET SDK which also is a abstraction.
- Timing end of march ... but as everybody knows .... it could take some
more time.

Some personal statements :
- I know it is not very good to develop for windows but this is the only way
for me and for th major Small businesses outside ... and if there are some
enthousiast to convert it to a linux platform ... go ahead.
- For the moment it is quit oriented on a combination of ISDN hardware
(capi.conf) and cisco phones. once this is working without major bugs i will
extend it to (IAX.conf ... and other things)
- My only goal to develop this is to get asterisk on bigger user basis
- What i regret is the lack of developement of a interface between asterisk
and other software (for windows TAPI for example) i asked many times some
basic questions about the manager interface but nobody seems to be
interested ! i strongly belief this would be a major break through. but i do
not have enough C++ and/or Linux knowledge (and TIME ) to develop these
features.


The sourcecode ???

- Well lets play it tricky ... i'm going to publish all of the code under
GPL if i see some changes to latest point i mentioned just above. (and don't
try to convince me with "ethical" arguments, i'm now trying for 3 years to
make some "descent" money with integration of open source software and i see
it as a win/win operation)



Just fire me !!!

In a word, no.  There are a few GUI applications in the process of
being developed, but most of them are a substitute only for using an
editor on the Linux machine, not a full-fledged abstraction from the
configuration.
