Well, after a long time off, I'm back to working on packaging Asterisk,
and I thought that I'd revisit my previous decision to exclude the IAXy
firmware.
The IAXy is a small networked device produced by Digium (the developers
of Asterisk) to connect an analog phone to an Asterisk PBX[0]. It needs
some firmware to operate that can be served up to an IAXy over the
network by Asterisk. The IAXy firmware is included with the Asterisk
tarball, the relevant section from the LICENSE file is this:
contrib/firmware/iax/iaxy.bin:
This file is Copyright (C) Digium, Inc. and is licensed for
use with Digium IAXy hardware devices only. It can be
distributed freely as long as the distribution is in the
original form present in this package (not reformatted or
modified).
Based upon recent discussion regarding wireless firmware, it seems that
it is permissible to package the IAXy firmware. Am I correct?
