The custom boards allow for hardware DTMF keypad interface, hook switch and a few other things like LCD for CLID on old school phones with that provision.

There will be official Raspian packages sooner or later… theres a know issue with the cowbuilder that’s blocking this at this time, we’re working on a work around…

Hi

Yes, I have FusionPBX/freeSwitch running on a RPi3. Will the ARM build ever become "Official"?

I've watched a 'tube video or two. What is the functionality of the custom boards?
