I did not mean to state or imply that you are lazy or stupid; It's just that some folks expect to spend 10 minutes reading a PDF, set up Asterisk and all is well - That's not what Open Source is about. If you want limited or no risk, you have to pay the piper. I'll bet there are thousands of pieces of code that are great that don't get through the contribution process. You can't have any type of *cracy without crazy :)

You're suggesting that if I pay someone they'll be able to get the default setting for allowguest changed to "no" ? I could be wrong, but I don't generally consider myself stupid or lazy... and yet this default setting as "yes" took me by surprise, obviously. So either I am stupid or lazy or there is a risk here that can catch even others off-guard. I've been down this contribution road-path a half-dozen times before with Asterisk. So forgive me if I don't play it out to the final futile note. In ESR's CatB there's the idea where the maintainer encourages (and wants) bug reporting, feedback, and other non-code forms of contribution (as well as code contributions). He refers to it as grooming co-developers. That's not how Asterisk development works... here you can contribute if you're already in the meritocracy, but if you're not, then you have more than a difficult time in trying to even contribute in small non-monetary ways. So anyway, I've been down this road a half-dozen times already, and it ends up being futile, frustrating, and time-consuming. I'm too busy today to be interested in playing.
