Please attach additional information (eg the exact file format) to the enh-request: http://bugzilla.opengroupware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=928 I think this is so easy that we can do it for OGo 1.0. But we need someone to try the implementation (or even better: find someone who can install an Asterisk reference server for developer testing on an OGo machine). > The second is to use the "Manager API", which looks like a part of the > standard Asterisk server which (when enabled) listens on a TCP port > for commands to do stuff.
