You may be taking what happened on IRC a bit too literally.
You are right, judging from the responses I have received both on and
off-list. Everyone has been extremely polite and understanding. I partly
expected to get flamed on this one. Many thanks to all who responded!
You got plenty of help on your Polycom and call parking issues on 09/14,
from some very knowledgeable people. On 09/17, you asked one question
about rPath/Conary and one person did a '/me puts jcanfield on ignore'
emote. He probably didn't even ignore you, it was just his way of
saying he wasn't interested in answering questions about packaging
systems on a Linux distro he doesn't use. The simple answer to your
question ("how do I get the LDAPGet module") is answered on the Wiki -
you download it from the author's site. The question of "how do I
package some arbitrary source code into a conary package?" isn't really
germane to #asterisk.
In no way did I mean to discredit the help I have received so far. As a
newcomer I saw asterisk/asteriskNOW/Digium as one and the same. I realize
now, the ecosystem that is "Asterisk", is much more diverse than that.
As to the second class citizen point, I think you'll find that people
who come into #asterisk asking about problems with their GUI-enabled
Asterisk install fall into one of two categories: those who are willing
to reduce the problem down to it's non-GUI elements and pastebin the
configs and output, and those who are incapable or unwilling to do so.
The former tend to get help from people on #asterisk; IMHO the latter
should find other places to ask for help, or pay for consulting
services.
100% agree.
Thanks again.
