Because I assume the dumbed down factor is for the old HAM folks.
Your logic is seriously flawed if you think that statement implied
this is a HAM list.  Just look at the to name for the list, "Asterisk
Repeater Controler", not HAM, not EVB, not ACID, or anything but pure
Asterisk.

I was just trying to figure out the dumbed down logic of the
documented install methods.

I was referring to the typical HAM person who is collecting social
security, retired, and don't like change.  Can't teach most old dogs
new tricks so let's dumb it all down for them.  Seems logical, I
belong to a club, only went once, too may geezers that shunned new
tech (change).

Ummmmmm, no, sorry.  That is exactly where the idea was taken from.  I
heard those words come right out of Jim Dixon's mouth in person, face
to face.

In fact, I do believe Dingotel devices were and may still be supported
in app_rpt drivers and all.

Infringement doesn't effect me, it is DMK Engineering that stands to
be sued.  Do you know how these things work legally, logically?

Yes, when I speak I generally use both sides of my mouth as almost
everyone does.

I have met people that had strokes and other medical problems that
only spoke out of one side of their mouth.  There by the grace of
God...

How am I "lasing", you are the troll (try googling it) but not a very
good one.

A "remailer" or as us young whipper snappers like to call them are
"mailing lists" are for asking a valid questions and expecting a
logical answers.  And to further the project.  I have done this, have
you?

I did post a HOWTO with the information to that new fangled remailer gizmo.

Welcome to the world of Open Source.  http://www.dmkeng.com/Products.htm
See this part "Open source: asterisk, app_rpt" I fail to see anything
about EVB or ACID?

"Open source: asterisk, app_rpt" means free.

Apples to oranges.  When I buy a PC peripheral, I expect working
drivers and software as stated on the sales material.  I expect
telephone support to get it working properly.  I don't expect to have
to format a computer and install a whole new operating system and a
bunch of junk and unknown code with security holes (unless I missed
that part on the sales page.)

Maybe you have to buy it, but not me.  Anyways, moot point since you
are comparing apples to oranges and clearly don't understand how
Opensource works or PC hardware.

It is not like I want to install it on some crazy system, I just want
a clean mainstream Linux OS that I have downloaded directly from a
trusted source.  Do I need webmin, freepbx, databases, web servers,
and alot of bloat (and known and unknown security holes)?

I was simply asking why EVB and ACID are being pushed so hard.  Not
asking for free support, but if I were, the software is open source,
so it is free and I can ask questions on a mailing list, er um
"remailer".  That is why it is here and I see plenty of people asking
for support and not getting a troll jumping on their back.

I cannot control how your mind works.

If I were to say, "Imagine you mother with two big black guys", you
may take that in a million different ways.  I bet you would conjure
some kind of image and be angry.

You could also conjure a nice image of those two big black guys
carrying her groceries across the street.  Be honest with yourself.
What image or feeling hit you first?  Why are you an angry person is
your question, not mine.

Those dang on remailer gizmos, it give them whipper snappers freedom
of speech, freedom to question "why?".  And keep asking "why?" when
nobody gives any good answers month after month.

It works just fine, tested it already with FC8.  Why hide knowledge?
Isn't that what this new fangled interweb made of pipes for?  Freedom
to communicate, collaborate, conduct commerce......?  Why not post
this knowledge where people that might not want to drink the EVB/ACID
coolaide?

Believe me, you are the only one wasting time.  My posts will be
archived and read by like minded people and they will be helped by
what I wrote.  How about your posts?  Did it help anyone?  Misery
loves company so I hope you are alone.
