With as much as I would hate the onslaught of new users that have to be taught how to search for answers, I think this is the best way to get the word out. It is probably likely we could get several thousand new users by having a book that is available at most books stores. I'd suggest the O'rieley proceeds get turned into hosting payments for Digium though as this will no doubt increase their hosting needs without necessarily a great upturn at first in their revenues. I may be wrong on that though. -- Steven Critchfield <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
