[cisco-voip] cisco licensing changes...

[Lelio Fulgenzi]

I'm not fully versed with open source and how it works, but is it possible that someone from the community can interject malicious code? I mean, I would gather that it wouldn't be in there long, but if it's like wikipedia, can't someone put in code that "phones home" and do some damage before someone retracts it?

K-12, small to medium business, with users being from under 10 up to 700. It's not for a Boeing, Lockeed, State or Fed gov. depolyment but Callmanager wasn't either when it came out.

We're seeing a move from Cisco to Juniper for routers and switches and then from Callmanager to Asterisk phone systems. They're cheaper to run and customers are not paying for featues they do not use often. 

Who's your demographic?
