[Liverpool] Meetings, announcements, social centre, etc.

[Sebastian Arcus]

As mentioned to Dan last time we met, I keep on thinking of giving a 
talk/intro to Asterisk and the Asterisk eco system - if there is enough 
interest. However, I don't know if I will get enough time by next week 
to put together a presentation.

First off - is there any interest in this?

Sebastian


P.S. - For those who don't know, Asterisk is a FOSS PBX in software - a 
phone system implemented fully(ish) in software. It runs on Linux, on a 
normal pc (or some alternatives). You can connect SIP hardware phones to 
it, you can connect SIP software phones to it, you can connect normal 
analog phones, you can connect it to regular phone lines (POTS), you can 
connect it to ISDN lines, T1, E1 lines (professional type lines), SIP 
trunks over the internet, HAM radio equipment, mobile phones - and 
pretty much everything else you can think of (well, almost :-) )
