The source is not available. At this time, there is no legal g729 codec or any known chan_skype or this fax channel that is available for Astlinux. We continue to work with Digium to convince them to compile a binary, but they have been unwilling to do so at this point due to support issues and the requirement to compile new versions if/when they make changes or we make certain changes to Astlinux. If there were enough demand, Digium might make a business decision to provide the binaries. Time will tell, but based on past history, don't hold your breathe.
