#2It's amazing this project is still alive and kicking. Back in the day, early 2000s, I was employed by Takeaway.com to automate a large part of their outbound callcenter work (after faxing an order for a Pizza, sometimes an error occurred due to paper jam etc and our callcenter had to verify the order arrived).
As this was way before the day of Twilio, Asterisk allowed us to completely automate that process, thus reducing the work of our callcenter tremendously. I can only assume they use a service like Twilio for this nowadays, but they were fun times, it allowed us to save incredible amounts of money, and is a good example of how opensource software helps small businesses in their early phase.
