This wasn't a complaint against Asterisk.  We don't even use Asterisk,
but I have 16 Nortel PBXs (with VOIP).  They provide a decent GUI for
configuration.  It is just that the problem is complex,  corporations
want call pools and after-hours plans, and when A doesn't answer go to
B, and if B doesn't answer ring pool C x number of times........
Multiply that by many departments.  Dialpans are just a nightmare of
tedium regardless of phone system.  

A *beautiful* candidate for out sourcing!  *OUT* sourcing, as in, far
far away for me.  :)
