If you are really wanting to build something on Raspberry Pi or similar ARM platform, you could also take a look at Elastix for ARM.
http://www.elastix.com/en/downloads/ Elastix is a fully integrated platform, and includes the majority of necessary components in one installation. The new Raspberry Pi 2 platform may be perfect for your needs in this respect, although based on your load, the B+ board may be more available at this time, and slightly cheaper. The Pi 2 is about double the core processing speed.
