font-family:Arial'>We are very near to going live with our * system here at my
office and I am very excited. I want to thank everyone here on the list who so
willingly shares their knowledge and the entire * community in general for
working together to put out s great product that is imho far better than
most/all commercial offerings.</span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>The only snags we ran into were during basic configuration
due to some things that were written about contexts but not clearly explained.
As such we are working on a basic guide/manual similar to the ‘Getting
Started’ pages on the wiki for those who want another perspective on
installing and configuring this great system. </span></font></p>

copy and paste some of your document into ours as well as provide a direct link
to it for clarification of several points we cover.</span></font></p>

font-family:Arial'>If anyone has found something simple that they didn’t quite
understand please e-mail me with the question and solution and I’ll
include it. Again, this is going to be a VERY basic how-to just to get up and
running with a configuration similar to ours which is a T10P/channelbank/and *
server with snom sip phones. We are not going to try to go any further into
specific configuration – mostly we will show working examples and try to
link to better resources for more detailed explanations; essentially a
compilation of other resources with our own experiences commented in.</span></font></p>

printed pages letting the noob (like us) get up and running smoothly and
pointing to the correct places for help.</span></font></p>
