  I got a requirement list just now, with my comments inline: (showing it just for a giggle)

  User requirement: 1) Directory set up by name - If person calling does not know employee's name, how will they access? 

      -Why, using app_telepathy.so of course!

  User requirement: 2) Directory set by first &/or last name?? 

      -Yes. Now decide which one.

  User requirement: 3) Not all mobile phones have the albphabet on their dialpads, how do they access our directory? 

      -Shout really loud. Telus should have a class action against it for selling Razrs with no DTMF.

      I wish had some pearl of wisdom here, but I don't.  I will simply share my sympathy.


      Sounds like an ESU situation to me.

      I have a group of users whos complaint about Asterisk is that the directory

      application is too hard too use. (yeah, yeah, I know. For the record,

      they're Calgarians) Now I'm in a pickle: I don't want to have to create a

      custom directory for these guys. Anyone have any tips for making the

      directory easier, maybe re-record the prompts so they are more verbose? We

      go by first name.
