I really don't understand the complaint. Fonality gets a $5 mil. investment for building its own system on top of Asterisk -- no complaint. But Mark & Co. can't get VC for their own business / enterprise / support architecture?

Everything that "we-all" is contributing is part of the open source Asterisk system, which Mark dreamed up and which continues to be an unbelievably exciting piece of software.

One day soon I hope programmers who work for me will contribute to the code base. The fact that Digium just got $13.7 mil. to keep doing what they're doing merely ensures that we who use the open-source base will all be benefiting from a stable and growing team of professionals pushing the project forward.

Congrats, Digium. I for one am delighted, and look forward to joining the "fools."
