Audio file not available
Usually I can download the audio file. There is no Download audio file link this time. Is it normal?
Looks like Audio Module changed
...and it requires me to check a box in order to display the download link now. It's checked now! Sorry 'bout that.
Thanks for posting the links
Thanks for posting the links relevant to the podcast. It will definitely be easier for this listener (the long URL in Drupal Podcast 46 comes to mind).
Also check out AsteriskNOW
Thanks for the interesting podcast!
Folks out there who are looking at delving into telephony ((warning:sound) ;-) with Asterisk should also be sure to check out the AsteriskNOW project as well.
This is a super Software Appliance version of the Asterisk PBX, and the project is actually sponsored by Digium, which might be reassuring for the purists out there. It features the rPath Linux distribution at its core, and also has a very nice Web GUI for administration and configuration. Unlike trixbox, which seems to throw in everything from CRM to the kitchen sink, AsteriskNOW is purely an Asterisk implementation only- no extra stuff.
You can even run it in a virtualized environment (with VMware or Xen), so you don't need an extra machine. My parents even run it as a virtual machine on their souped up Mac Mini with VMware fusion- it's that simple! ;-)
Rock on, y'all! looking forward to the next show!
