This *is* a commercial solicitation. I was asked for moderation by
mailman and I choosed to let it go.

Not yet. And why not!

In fact, I based my choice on a new rule in France: a commercial
solicitation may not be considered as spam when it is sent to people who
are working in the corresponding domain.

Here I did consider that we are people using Linux and seeking the best
hardware products for it. Sangoma provides alternatives to using Cisco
routers through their WAN PCI cards and alternatives to using
proprietary PBX systems through their FXO/FXS and T1/E1 telephony PCI
cards, in combination with asterisk.

No, I have no relation with Sangoma and I won't get money for this
advertisment! ;-)

> This particular message is not too bad, not directly selling product but rather looking for partners -- Mr. Cruz is looking to do legitimate business, and maybe I can even help him to get distribution over here -- but still it is pretty borderline, and I am a little surprised to see it on this list.

Now you have my explanation. But the discussion is still open: fell free
to express yourself about this subject if you think I was wrong.
