But isn't this due to the 'intended audience' for the book? I just started setting up asterisk, I can dial the test message now (yea! :) ) but I have still to find out how to write an extensions.conf file.
So far I found the book on asterisk.org easier to read than just browsing thru the wikis but a book for people starting from scratch could be useful too Are you putting it up for sale? :) Thanks!
