[Asterisk-Users] Development SOP - was:Downgrading Asterisk

[Nik Martin]

I'm willing to open my system up for those developers that cannot duplicate
the problem on their own systems.  I have a nice flat network, good
hardware, no off-the-wall configurations, an up-to-date kernel and server
hardware, etc.  Contact me on or off list and I'll arrange for SSH access
for you, after we have a short phone conversation.
