Nov 19, 2003 To Everyone on this list... What's been suggested for a FAQ and other "much needed information" for such a _HIGHLY_ technical software product has been proven thousands of times in the past few months. Even an untrained monkey can see that, including many geeks. Those that are against it are the very _few_ arrogant self-centered egotistical few that think their middle initials are VoIP. It would be very easy to publish a list of such names on this list and only consume a half-inch of email space (even with Outlook Express in bold print, heaven forbid). And, their first names do not start with Mark either (Everyone, please note Mark's political absence from this somewhat "hot" topic; excellent posture.)
The majority of recent postings to the list are, without a doubt, coming from folks that have just recently found an app they believe in and would like to try it. But the arrogant _few_ (about 3, if someone's counting) consistently discourage these same people with "did you search the archives" or "any dumb fxxx" should know that; just read the code!!! If I see one more post from those same arrogant <people>, I'm tempted to build an army <of you know what> and see how well their business and customers stand up to the DS3 <pressure>. (For the arrogant few, substitute the best-known very-well- understood words that you can come up with in between <>. It shouldn't take more then a couple of Crayons to color between the lines.) A minimum of ten years of Internet history has already proven that sharing information is a very positive thing. Yet, on "this" list and with this product, the overwhelming objective by those that have a clue is to _not_ share the intricacies of how to accomplish basic telephony functions. Most of us do understand why a couple of cookie-Krums (intended) are scattered around though!!! There has been several attempts by _many_ to help document the product, but even _that_ effort has been consistently undermined by a select _few_. Until knowledge and experiences are shared <openly>, the product will likely remain in its present state. (Sorry Mark!) For those that have actually read this far, please express your honest opinion as they're truly are some people lurking that want to learn and can impact the negativity that is so common on this list. For those that are new to the list and don't understand the frustration, please disregard. _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
