This brings up an interesting idea, once the sounds are pulled out and
you are thinking of building makefile targets for downloading them, why
not split the various language files apart to further reduce the amount
one downloads without reducing the total of asterisk-sounds. I doubt my
company uses more than 10% of even the english files and we haven't
touched any of the other languages.
