Short answer: not quickly. Long answer: We have a pretty limited amount of sysadmin cycles, and we are pretty darn busy keeping all the things we have now up and working, so we don't want to just add services at the drop of a hat. The two paths I see for a thing like this: 1. We could stand up a cloud instance and let interested people setup the service and get it all working and that would be minimal impact on the rest of infrastructure. However, this service could be down anytime we do maint on the cloud, if it had problems it would be up to the people who set it up to fix it, wouldn't be monitored or backed up, etc. 2. We could make it a fully supported service. This path starts by people packaging up all the server bits and getting them approved and in Fedora/EPEL. Then we stand up a staging instance do a bunch of stuff to add HA and monitoring and get everyone up to speed on how to support it, make sure there's many more than 1 person around who knows it, etc. Basically our Request for Resources process. > > Is it really necessary?

Right. I am not sure what the concern here is with using the provided service. ;) We used to run a asterisk service. It ended up getting about 2-3 calls... a month, and some of those were admins testing that it was working. So, we dropped it, since that was a very inefficient use of our time. (The orig folks who set it up left, we had to keep maintaining packages for it and updating things for security issues all the time, etc). Anyhow, thats pretty long winded, but basically I agree with Adam. ;) kevin
