AGX's Asterisk Extra AddOns Files

README for AGX Addons
=====================

Homepage: http://www.badpenguin.org/asterisk-1.4-fax-addon

This package contains additional modules for Asterisk which are, for one reason 
or another, not included in the normal base distribution.  Many of these
modules are experimental or have a GPL license without a disclaimer that allow
digium to insert them into the official distribution (double licensed).

This work/effort has been sponsored by:
- since 2005 by Antonio Gallo http://www.badpenguin.org/
- in 2007 by http://www.mercuriuspbx.it/
- in 2011 by http://www.mixvoip.com/

Those addons are only for Asterisk 1.4, since 1.6 already include them.
You need the exact spandsp library version as required for the fax
application otherwise it will not work.



UPDATED SOURCE
==============

If you downloaded the tarball please delete it and try the svn version instead
since the tarball is almost always out-of-date.

SOURCE under the "SVN" menù. BINARIES are under the "FILES" menù.
