That's not quite correct, either. First of all, the correct forum for this is the -dev list, where we discuss development issues. Second, we gave you an alternative way to do this. You could do this with AMI, with the addition of a single query to access current state, then monitor status continuously for updates. And third, it doesn't make a difference how many users request a particular interface -- the development team has to maintain it afterwards, and if you're proposing a new interface, you need to convince the development team that it's worth the extra hassle -- not the users. So we're not opposed to the concept; we are opposed to the particular interface that you chose to use. Modify it, and it will make its way back into Asterisk. Stubbornly stamping your foot and insisting that you have the right way, and the status quo will remain. > *** Supporting this feature > If You find that those features would be good for merging into > Asterisk, please write a comment in bugtracker: > http://bugs.digium.com/view.php?id=12556 Please don't. We've already discussed this to enough detail, and if you choose to modify your code, it will show up in the next major release of Asterisk. -- Tilghman _______________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
