Eh? Your answer was entirely correct and the right thing to do. The
purpose of my posting was to back you up...

I know, I read the posts in the wrong sequence. I need a document on
using Thunderbird :)
As you see, I even completed my answer and I'll keep that as a template
for peope who ask "I just downloaded, what do I do?", it's a common
enough question. I read his msg so fast I answered too quickly. There
are many startup guides around and it is indeed better to read one
before braving the -users to ask questions.
This said, if you don't mind I'll leave my shirt off as it's very hot
here at the moment.
cheers,

OK. There is very hot discussion here. It means (I hope) subject is very hot.
I don't agree with Jim:

we are quiet because we are very busy and hard working (around VoIP, Asterisk,
Internet, e.t.c), and maybe talking not enough.
But I think this discussion means we think documentation is VERY important
part of Asterisk.
There is some old rules about this:
1. Make documentation in parallel with coding.
2. Make docs even before coding.
This is because you have to know where are you going and documentation is your
roadmap.

P.S.
I think -i18n quietest list. :)

Trust me, I'm not just sitting here playing Sudoku waiting for a reply. :-)

That's the goal of my project -- build the docs in DocBook XML format,
build tools around it to export it into whatever -- HTML, Text, PDF.
Then once it is up-to-date or as close as it can be, focus on getting
developers to mark their svn-commits with some sort of key sequence such
as *d* or *D* to mark the commit as a change in the way asterisk works or
in documentation.
Then we just monitor the svn-commits list, create a ticket for every *D*
svn commit, and then modify the docs or close the ticket if no changes
are needed.

Good luck. I don't know if the dev team writes docs before coding, but I
haven't seen where they do it if they do. Not that that is bad, but I
think it is a pipe-dream anytime soon.
Quote:

Leave that to the -dev team -- they seem to know where they are going.
Their system just doesn't generate the kind of documentation I hope for
Asterisk, which would include examples, caveats, links to other
applications, etc.

I think you all should all take a look at a company called
http://www.bluenotenetworks.com. They have a cool product and have services
for the future i.e. SOA (Service Oriented Architecture). This is a good
migration strategy for companies that need to be ahead of the rest.

You will need a softphone (software based telephone that installs on
your computers),
as well as a dedicated system on which to run asterisk. Depending on
what kind of
land line or internet telephony connectivity you may use your need for
Digium hardware
will vary. If you plan to confrence more than 12 users at a time I
definitely recommend a
hardware timing reference such as a Digium TDM400p, as depending on your
hardware you
will see drift in ztdummy past that point, especially with transcoding.
(your mileage will vary,
as does anyone else's based on hardware and load)

There are many paid consultants who can do this.

Hrm, I don't spoonfeed for free. You might check voip-info.org, the
asterisk documentation project,
or Asterisk: The Future of Telephony (O'Reily) all of which are
excellent sources of information.
