[Cialug] Asterisk, IAXYs and IAX (was Des Moines Area ISPs)

Sure.  We could even do stuff like, ring your home phone and if nobody
answers in 20 seconds call your cell phone too.  Or ring both extensions at
once.  Asterisk will also e-mail your phone mail to you.

Probably just about anything you can do with Vonage plus maybe a few more
things.

I have not signed up with Vonage yet.  It's hard to resist an opportunity to
slash my phone bill in half.

Anyone figure out how much this service would cost on a per person basis.
Would the service have all of the options as Vonage, like 3-way calling and
voice mail?

I've revised my requirements list for an Asterisk Telephony cooperative:

So how would an asterisk Coop work?  We would need:  participants  a
machine, 
 a place to host it
 Internet bandwidth with necessary room and/or QoS
 a small race of elf-like genius computer operators to manage it.

Number one requirement is now participants.  Would enough people even be
interested in giving up Vonage for something like this?  Thinking out loud -
we would either need the critical mass of people and money or some
uber-geeks that want to do it just for the sake of doing it, or some
combination thereof.
