| Imagine an IP voice and unified communications system that can be integrated
| into any application and customised to meet business needs. Sounds great,
| right? Well that project is the Asterisk IP-PBX and it's free to use and you
| get the source code. A far cry from proprietary PBX systems perhaps, but
| Asterisk has a vibrant ecosystem and is replacing systems from more
| established telephony vendors.

| source of knowledge for new entrant developers in this field and a great way
| for providers to offer a cheap way to make phone calls from your PC.
