in the heat of it all I had a phone call with Christian whom I explained that I
never was intending to stiff him and he said to me that he was not pissed off
either. There have been many situations in which this business has been up and
down for me and my former company Vision Communications. I was a victim to
fraud and doing business with large <span class=SpellE>VoIP</span> companies
here in </span></font><st1:City><st1:place><font size=2 color=navy face=Arial><span

size=2 color=navy face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial;
color:navy'> which ended up shutting the doors on everyone. I lost all of my
customers and not to mention the fact that if I did not nullify all contracts
outstanding with the customers as well as help them in their move over to new
carriers (<span class=SpellE>ie</span> change out hardware, etc…) I would
end up getting sued for lost business. <span class=SpellE>Anywho</span>… I
explained all this to Christian as it was happening and then some at the time
of the situations. In efforts to keep a good reppore I promised him that I
would pay him when I got some money ahead from other opportunities. As it goes
Vision Communications went out of business and I ended up selling the equipment
to another start up. The start up was supposed to hire me on as the CTO and we
were supposed to build a business again with greater efforts. Even then I was
promised everything from a paycheck on June 1<sup>st</sup> which never happened
as well as all pending liabilities that Vision Communications had would be
paid. That never happened either. I did make enough money though to keep my
house from foreclosing and cars from being repossessed. Had I had the money and
other benefits that were promised to me I would have made amends at that time. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color=navy face=Arial><span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy'><span style='mso-tab-count:1'> </span>I
have been in the Asterisk community for a while (over 3 years) and have been
burned as well (very badly I might add). I am not a thief, crook, or a liar. I
am as honest and passionate about this business as the next guy. I know that
the only thing in this business that makes anyone happy is money, no matter
your past reppore. If anyone on this list passes judgment on me because of the
recent postings then don’t do business with me. I will tell everyone
though that I have a good reppore with other well known people and businesses
in this industry as anyone else who pays their bills on time. This includes <span
class=SpellE>Digium</span> and other vendors. If anyone on this list has any
problems with me and my reppore and need any explanation they can hit me up off
list. This is my final rebuttal to all of these postings. My only question was
if anyone has used Asterisk in a compact PCI architecture, and I got my answer.
If there are any details that anyone would like to disclose on the list or even
off the list to me I would love to hear about it other wise thank you for the
replies.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
