Summary:                    2 features, ring expiry and periodic announce
firstplay
Description: 
Posted both these together because they work hand in hand (but will also
work separately).

1st feature; ringexpiry

; When the 'r' option is passed to the Queue() you can expire the ringing
; then start music on hold.  If you use this with
periodic-announce-frequency
; and set it to the same value, when the ring expires it will play the 
; periodic announce then start the music on hold.
;
; ringexpiry = 10

2nd feature; periodic-announce-firstplay

; When to play the first periodic announcement.  This allows you to 
; play the first announcement at the beginning of the call then revert
; back to a much higher frequency (0=off)
;
;periodic-announce-firstplay=10

Wouldn't this do the same thing:

;Higher priorities...
exten => _XXXXX,n,Playtones(ring)
exten => _XXXXX,n,Wait(10)
exten => _XXXXX,n,StopPlayTones()
exten => _XXXXX,n,Playback(periodic-announce-file)
exten => _XXXXX,n,Queue(queue-basic)    ;note: no r option
;Lower priorities...
