Re: [Astlinux-devel] Default Asterisk configuration

[Lonnie A. <li...@lo...>]

Hi Michael,

I was not suggesting any changes to web interface and not suggesting offering Asterisk support.

Again just brainstorming, if the default config could offer a very basic "home" PBX such that a beginner had a starting point to build upon ... would that be better than the current default Asterisk extensions.conf ?
