[Sussex] sip

As the list has quiet spells, so it's reassuring that there's still spooky geek stuff going on that I have absolutely no idea about (nothing new there). 

I have no idea why anyone might want would want full PBX facilities at home, unless you happen to be running a medium sized PLC from there.

Bloody marvelous. Keep it up :-D

I follow your SIP and Other sophisticated talk with interest but is
all miles above me.  Pleased to hear BT going for Linux, leaving

I keep looking for low low low grade linux subjects suitable for

Keep up the good work
