[Asterisk-Users] Don't use CDRTool From AG-projescts

[Steve Totaro]

You should have been working with asterisk about four years ago, lol!  
Talk about no docs.

Most opensource projects provide "read between the lines" and "Google 
the error to get a clue, your brains, trial and error" docs.  At least 
in my experience. 

Want some good docs?  Maybe read the docs for "MySQL server,  FreeRadius 
server, Cisco gateways, MediaProxy or SIP Express Router" and then retry 
CDRTool. 

Don't slam someone's project because you cannot figure it out and are 
not willing to pay $$$!  Comes off as greedy to me. 

Guess I have not setup the "Harry Potter to junk folder" rule on this 
machine yet, thanks for reminding me.

Thanks,
Steve
