[asterisk-users] OT: Grandstream, call pickup, ...

[Philipp Kempgen]

Maybe it's just me, but I get the impression that Grandstream is
quite uncooperative.

We (and others) have asked them multiple times to make the call-
pickup code ("**") configurable but either they don't understand
the request or they're unwilling to do anything about it.

Unfortunately their bug tracker is not public.

In addition they seem to violate sox's license by distributing a
modified version of it in binary form only and are not responsive
about requests for the source code.

That leaves a bad taste in my mouth.
