Good to know you are not short of space :-) I hope everyone else upgrades as
well.

I wouldn't have minded you saying, *"This topic is fully covered in /Doc
folder and in asterisk Wiki. Reference URL: ........."* in one or two lines
that was relevant. To go on a lecture.....

I may still not agree with your points but apology accepted and no hurt
feelings here either.

I hope that Asterisk mailing list becomes a less hostile list day by day.

Cheers (for real)
