You ask EVERYONE to make all there work and effort Open Source cause you don't want to pay.....

So in Short.... I don't think people should demand that people make there software open source UNTIL Digium Makes G729 and G723 Open source... Until they do... Asterisk's GPL Has not Got a Pot to piss in...
g.729 and g723.1 are both patent protected and Digium must pay royalties to the patent holder from the amount they are collecting from you for the use of these codecs. I'm not quite sure you're of the belief that the GPL applies to this. -- Bird's The Word Technologies, Inc. http://www.btwtech.com/ _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-biz mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-biz
