Summary:                    [patch][post 1.4] Random Periodic Announcements in
app_queue
Description: 
Just wanted to submit this little addition to Periodic Announcements while
on hold.
This patch allows you to specify a directory instead of a file for
periodic-announce in queues.conf.
Doing so will randomly choose and play a file in that directory, however
often is specified with periodic-announce-frequency.  A different random
file from that directory is played each time.

All right, after a long discussion, I have implemented this feature, though
admittedly quite differently than was originally done.

Here's the deal:

Since periodic-announce already allows you to specify a comma-separated
list of announcements, it only makes sense to allow for these messages to
be played randomly or sequentially (currently only sequential playback is
allowed). Doing things this way makes for the easiest set of changes to the
code, allows for the use of language-specific sound files to be played, and
is a very inexpensive operation to perform.

Expect a commit soon.
