Firstly, most "newbies" will not use cvs code (At least they shouldn't), and the majority of them will not compile anything by hand either. The simple solution is at the next release of OpenPBX, there should also be a stable release of SpanDSP and both should be neatly packaged into rpms and debs for general consumption. Problem solved. I personally will be spending as long as it takes at the Free Software/Open Source Telephony-Summit 2006 (http://www.linuxtag.org/2006/en/besucher/konferenzen/3rd-telephony-summit.html) to make sure this happens for SLES 9, SLES 10 and SUSE 10.0 Anyone else who has an interest is welcome to join me at this "packaging bofh". -- Peter Nixon http://www.peternixon.net/ PGP Key: http://www.peternixon.net/public.asc
