Re: [asterisk-users] ISPBX Announces COGOBLUE Interface andPBX Appliances
As far as a license is concerned, we do not ship with any codecs that require licensing (we support them) and when someone purchases an ISPBX PBX system, the license for using What Kristian was asking is, what license does the software you have written use? Is it GPL? Seeing that many of us only run open source software due to being burned by proprietary software and systems, Cogoblue would be better received if it were open source.

John: CogoBlue is a proprietary software package written by ISPBX. It is not open source. It is currently only available on ISPBX hardware. Check out CogoBlue, once you see what a configuration package should be, you may have to reassess what that free software is really costing you. The on-line documentation is extensive. There are movies that show you the product in use.

Re: [asterisk-users] ISPBX Announces COGOBLUE Interface andPBX Appliances
My comments were in no way an indictment of free software. Yes,, we use Asterisk and it is fantastic. Yes , we use Linux.and it is fantastic. I pay to use UltraEdit as my text editor. I like it better than the free ones that are out. Does suggesting that some proprietary software has features whose benefits outweigh some of the free ones mean I an denigrating all free software?? The answer is NO. Do you load every distribution of Linux on your machine? No, you use the distribution that has the features you like and need. If you had to pay $10 for your favorite distro, would you stop using it? Probably not. If you had to pay $100 for your distro, would you stop using it? Hard to say, you would probably weigh the relative benefits of the $100 distro versus the free ones. If the $100 distro had features, whose benefits (to you) exceeded those of the free ones, you might buy it. Is that analysis an indictment of all free software? Of course not.
