Hi Jay,

I want to patch voicemail.c to allow for configurable pager-messages.
Looked at the code, and I know I can do that in 10 minutes.  Once done,
I'm planning to make this "patch" available to the community, provided
the paperwork (release form etc) takes less time than the actual patch.

Of course I know that I should based my modification on the
latest-available code, but I'm a bit reluctant to upgrade my WORKING
asterisk to the latest CVS.  Can I rename my asterisk-dir in /usr/src to
something different, then check out the latest CVS, make my changes, and
if it doesn't work, revert to my working version?  Or will Make and its
friends throw me for a loop?

Yes you can. I do it from time to time.

Be sure to remove the contents of /usr/lib/asterisk/modules before installing any version (your current or the latest one), because new modules (if there are any) will not be removed when reverting back to the previous version and you will have problems. And just issue a 'make install' (not a 'make samples'!)
