No, Cisco has their priorities just fine.  Companies are in business to
make money.  Not to give things away.

When I have a problem with a piece of Cisco equipment, it is answered
promptly and accurately, nearly 100% of the time.  I have SmartNet on
all of the devices for which I expect this service.

Cisco documents are property of Cisco.  Many of them require a CCO
account to access, and there are varying levels of CCO access.  Many
"newer" technologies are initially available to all with a CCO login
until their maturity and complexity reaches a point where Cisco makes a
specialty for them, at which time those documents and new ones on the
subject are sometimes no longer available to just anyone with a CCO
login.  Cisco also maintains and updates their documents on an as-needed
basis.

Storing copes of their documents on your own web site for public use
defeats their ability to do all of these things.

And if you want to argue that much of this is done just to charge you
more money, you are correct.  Cisco is an enterprise infrastructure
company.  Not a home user/home office/small office outfit where you can
call up and talk to a 17 year old with a script for "help" when you have
a problem.  To get real support costs money.  Example: Digium.

I couldn't agree more - ask most people and they say they buy from the big
boys (IBM, Cisco, M$, etc) because of the way they know a big company will
stand behind their products, support them, make things right with a
problem, etc. How many of these people have actually tried to deal with
those companies when there is a problem ?

The larger the company the worse it is to find someone intelligent enough
to understand what you are talking about and not just regurgitate the tech
support mantra, and then to actually listen and solve the problem instead
of just saying something like well if it is not affecting 1 customers
we don't touch it. You want to hear horror stories ? Do a search on trying
to licence lzw from unisys for GIF. (and I thought they centered us out
till I read what others put up with).

I would be happy to test it for you but I'm not sure how much I would be able
to help code. What language is it in? As I mentioned before, the best bet to
help with the coding/testing would be to post it on bugs.digium.com.

I will agree with the comments of others on this topic.

You should _not_ include the prompts from Cisco.  That is almost 
certainly a copyright violation.

For a very low price, you can have Allison Smith 
(http://www.theivrvoice.com/) re-record the prompts, as she is the

Speaking of voice prompts, could anyone tell me why the pre-recorded

sound fine?  Is it the format of the prompts?

You should _not_ include the prompts from Cisco.  That is almost

For a very low price, you can have Allison Smith

I don't know about the rights to the Cisco prompts, so be sure
to remove them and then release it. User other sound files as props
and make sure the scripts are there, so we know what to replace it with.
Maybe someone can fund a recording with the Asterisk voice if the application
is interesting enough.
If you want it to be part of Asterisk after testing by the community,
make sure you sign the disclaimer and fax to Digium. You'll find it
on bugs.digium.com. You still have the copyright to your application,
but give Digium the right to include it in Asterisk if they want to.
Thank you for contributing to Asterisk!

Why don't you release it without the prompts then?  It would probably be nice if you 
posted it to bugs.digium.com in experimental features or something like that.
