I'm with you two. TAPI 2.x is the only solution to consider for any
non-trivial application. TAPI 3.x is probably fine for single line
dialers but not much more. If you are serious about trying to build
CallCenter IVR/ACD type solutions using TAPI then 2.x is really the
only option. The various issues with TAPI 3.x (the lack of support
for private TSP extensions is a killer) make it unacceptable.
