[Voyage-linux] Re: Voyage ONE vs other Elastix and Issues

[Shane O'Cain]

I would like to see Voyage ONE continue as I see a need for a strong,
stable, embedded platform. I have found Voyage to be very stable as a
VPN/Firewall I would love to see Voyage ONE there with asterisk. Personally
I don't use GUI's and highly prefer editing the config files as I can get
more creative and do things faster without them.  If it can be kept slim
and simple I think skilled folks will start getting involved and using it
more. Punky - I'd like to help with the project in any way I can.

I'm going to start testing with PRI on the new Soekris net6501 and see how
it performs. Have already been using Voyage ONE with some TDM cards and
net5501 as fax servers and they have been running great.
