[TriLUG] Record Phone Interviews? Anyone done this?

[Jim Ray]

Asterisk rocks.  I downloaded trixbox over the weekend and had a pbx set up
in around 15 minutes with a softphone.  Life is good.

Now, all we need is to get Jon to be guest speaker on Asterisk at an
upcoming Triangle Open Source Lab meeting :-)

Regards,
 
Jim
