Ok, so you have verified my thoughts as to why it has been dumbed
down.  For the HAM audience.

I am not sure I would call an HP DL380 with dual power supplies and
RAID 5 a PC, I guess it is a commodity by definition.  I have one with
four and a half years of uptime.

Moot point, not even worth verifying, they are defunct.

Patents need to be somewhat specific, Jim Dixon gave credit where
credit was due at last year's Astricon (I was one of the ten or
fifteen people at that track).  He specifically said that the idea
(USB Radio Interface) came from the Dingotel product and went on to
say that app_rpt had support for Dingotel dongles.  I heard the words
come right out of his mouth.

Why are HAM operators so closed minded?  Anyways, from asking this
same question before, tens of people have contacted me offlist with
the same concerns.  Maybe it is the attitude on this list.

Should be developed cleanly with Asterisk and merged in the 1.6
branch.  EVB or ACID are not standards.
