Thanks for providing these - can you just clarify your policy on the
following:

- file locations - same layout as the regular Debian packages?

- upgrade policy - is it intended that someone who has Debian 6 with the
existing Asterisk 1.6 packages (from Debian's maintainer) can just
upgrade to the Digium package without moving or changing any config?
