You bet it's for sale! Make me an offer! BTW I have the other Asterisk book on order too - I'm keeping my fingers crossed it will be a good one. I'd really like to hand out a good book to each of my customers. Makes my life easier.
And good luck with Asterisk. It's a lot of fun. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Remco Barende Sent: Saturday, July 24, 2004 11:41 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Asterisk-Users] Do not buy "Asterisk for Small Office Setup"! 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!
