[Asterisk-Users] SysMaster and GPL Violation

[Voip Business]

Guys, in fact we will give an Applause to Sysmaster guys that are
doing a great job in their products (world wide sales), this guys are
doing money , and in this point is ,, Mark (and/or Digium is not
receiving  money for that).

But Back to basics of Open source you can sale , modify , distribute
and so on , so on so on,, BUT give the credits of the developer (in
this case that is the only thing thery are not respecting)

Now ,, Guys this is an oportunity to have a back benefit of that ,,
because why I will pay a 150K usd for a NORFA (sysmaster new system)if
for much less I can have an Asterisk up and running,

In my point of view technically Asterisk (as it is right now) is GREAT
lets take advance of that ,, instead of 100's of brains trying to make
asterisk more and more and more features.... GUYS FOR GOD SAINT lets
do it NEAT (GUI, Administration etc)

Why dont Asterisk comunity opens a group for Asterisk Simplification

This is the Opinion of a Non guru fellow ben available for a monthly
donation for that proyect (what we need is to be Several like me to
pay good programers and develop a GUI) and off course with a
"licencing" that for all the donators and contributors the GUI has no
Cost (including Digium) but for others will have a  cost.


AGAIN , this is only my point of view and I respect every coments about this :)

Regards


Humberto
