[Freeswitch-users] IAX and CDR

[Ken Rice]

The best way to push iax development on FreeSwitch at this point is to fund
the development.

I hate to be the one to point that out, but while the Core FreeSwitch
Developers have done a great amount of work on their own for their own
reasons, nothing really motivates software development like cold hard cash
;)

The IAX protocol is one of the bigger reason for me to use Asterisk as a
switch 
Please tell me what I can do to help push the development

thanks
