[Asterisk-Users] Real-time Asterisk hacking at VON

[John Todd]

Just an amusing note from the VON conference of earlier this week:

Most of the "big" vendors at the VON conference were there, showing 
off their various wares.  The majority of booths were staffed by 
marketing droids or "product managers", though there was a reasonable 
showing of some technical folks from smaller hardware/software 
companies.  However, I strongly doubt that any of the attendees were 
able to claim the prize that Mark grabbed: updating features and 
interoperability of the core system with another vendor right there 
at the booth!

The fellow from the Snom booth commented that the date wasn't showing 
up correctly on the Snom 200 that Mark had on the table, and that it 
could be cured by putting a Date: header into the REGISTER reply. 
Mark said "Sure!" and in about 10 minutes had put it in the code and 
had the Snom correctly showing the date.

Side notes: the Snom can be rebooted (reset) without pulling the 
power plug by hitting the "middle" button on the unit and then 
pressing "#" then "*". Or was it "*" and then "#"?  You get the idea, 
anyway.
