Asterisk is the shit, man.  I'm not running it in a full blown
"production" environment, but here at home its running as a phone
answering system and call forwarding system.  I'm also routing some long
distance and toll free calls over iaxtel network.

Asterisk is getting ready to be the centerpiece of an h323 softswitch I'm
developing to replace some $9000/4 port Siemens gear.
