FreeSWITH Questions

I've
been a long time Asterisk user/consultant, and it has served me very
well. With that said, Asterisk does have some short comings, and I'm
wondering if FreeSWITCH is the solution.
First
a couple of observations and then a couple of questions:
FreeSWITCH
needs a how to/ cook book, that will lower the bar to entry. I true
believe that the 6 or so Asterisk books on the market are helping
increase its adoption rate tremendously.
Where's
the GUI?

Or
at least some tools to help out with the XML. Looking at all the XML,
makes me think that Perl makes sense. :)
Now
the questions:
I
know that FreeSWITCH can scale to huge numbers, but is it suitable
for a small office install?
What's
the story with Cudatel? How is it effecting the FreeSWITCH project?
It seems to have a nice GUI.
