asterisk-gui (not)

[Tzafrir Cohen]

Update on the asterisk-gui ITP: not going anywhere for now.

I spent some time recently trying to update asterisk-gui .

Sadly I could not get much farther. It kept looping at startup and
upstream has been quite uncooperative. Debugging the maze of client-side
Javascript has proved to be quite uncooperative:

Current version of the package will not work with latest Asterisk 1.6.1
and DAHDI. My work-in-progress patches to adapt some SVN version (that
does support them) is at my working copy if anybody wants to pursue
this. 

But it seems that the asterisk-gui is something designed for asterisk 
running as root and executing shell commands provided from the user with
minimal or no filtering. This is not something I like.
