Well I will be at the amoocon in Rostock (European Asterisk Conference) at next Monday. http://www.amoocon.de/ I will hopefully have the chance to talk to Kevin Flemming and Mark Spencer from Digium. If you (devels) you could provide an exact formulation, what we need for Astlinux, I could give that to them or talk about it.
