There should be other "voices" worth while...
Give other people the chance....
The market is growing...
Be open :)

Hi
The latest new about the Open Source Asterisk PBX is now that mister
Spencer himself has forbidden Allison to work with any other open
source project than Asterisk. I don't know about the openness in such
an action. This sounds more like the ways Microsoft and other large
monopolists use to gain control over the market.
Is this really what the so-called "open" asterisk-makers Digium should
be doing? Is it only I, or is this just plain old monopolist arrogance
which should not combine with GPL?
Thanks for any input

Just so we're clear: Mark left the decision up to me, and being an
ethical person, I decided I can't work for both of you. (Imagine if
I continued to work for you and never told Mark, and it got back to
him -- bad craziness. And karma! Don't even get me started on that.)
It kills me to turn work down, it pains me to not work for you
anymore, as you're a hoot and we get along great. However, I have a
long-standing relationship with Digium, they've been incredibly good
to me; so to me it's a no-brainer. It wouldn't be a smart decision
to keep both going.
Sorry to leave you in a lurch! I'm sure you'll find some very
capable voice talent to take over, and I'm sure you'll be successful
at whatever you do.

Allison,
I'm greatly disappointed that you're going to let Mark and gang back
you into a corner like this. This is the exact reason I'm not
really associated with the project anymore. I was given an
ultimatum that I didn't think was fair to ask of someone. I'll not
go into details but now I'll have to scout a voice talent to
re-record the many prompts we already have so they all match. This
is why personal feelings must never cross business relationships.
It's been good. :(
Thanks,
Brian West
