PBX configuration is not for a "point and drool idiot". You must make intelligent considerations for call volume, deployment of equipment to satisfy needs, and understanding of how adding extensions in one area changes what is available in others unless it is segregated appropriately. > I've seen some rumors/proof of concepts to PHP web-based front end to > configuration?

It is possible to do it, it is possible to make a generic extension logic that allows extensions to be made simply by creating a voice mailbox.
