Browsing through the new website...


* Q - Does Asterisk Business Edition contain any additional features, fixes,
      or enhancements not found in the open source versions of Asterisk?

* A - Digium remains committed to the open source model, and has based
      Asterisk Business Edition entirely on the open source tree.
      However, no single release of the Open Source version corresponds
      to Asterisk Business Edition, since its features and bug fixes
      have been carefully chosen to increase reliability and decrease
      risk. 

Hmm, so Asterisk Business edition is:

1) Simply CVS head (as of some point in time) with certain features or
   bug fixes "backed out"

2) In addition to CVS head, some important features and bug fixes.

In either case, since they are committed to the open source model, are
they willing to tell us what features/bug fixes in CVS are considered an
increased liability and risk, or what important features and bug fixes
they've applied on top of CVS?  This could help those of us trying to
build stable, robust, asterisk-based solutions promote asterisk as a
stable, robust, low-risk platform.

Seems to be a bit of double-talk going on here...
