i agree with the idea that a drop in should have been created, and 
functionality built from there. i'm not sure i feel as strongly as the OP 
suggested in the subject subject line he created.

for those users of 1.6, you're now in a corner: go any higher than 1.6 beta 9 
and you need dahdi. no overlap with zaptel was created here. perhaps zaptel 
could have been kept in until 1.6.1, giving the 0.0.1 overldap :)

i've been trying to follow the devel of dahdi closely, even to the point of 
building kernel modules for fedora that *should* work with jeffrey ollie's 
tools packages, just approved by the package reviewers.

still, there are some concerning things that have been lingering, namely for 
me: http://bugs.digium.com/view.php?id=13443

well, anyway, just my two cents.
