Summary:                    Receiving Text from chan_gtalk
Description: 
Hello,

So far, chan_gtalk sends text to GTalk clients only. There is no way to
hear input from them which limit us a lot.

It will be awesome if we are able to receive text from GTalk users, to
provide extra services such as:

1) Voice menus. The user can select menus by sending corresponding keys
2) Or, "text" menus by which the chan_gtalk replies by text messages
instead of voice

I am glad that phsultan thought about it, however very disappointed that
it was canceled.

Ok, I'll try to address that issue. Regarding the DTMF problem, I won't
have much time to dedicate to it, sorry Mahmoud.

I'd like you to test this new version of the patch. This new version does
not look for the channel to queue the text frame to based on the caller id.
This allows to use the JabberReceive application for any channel (SIP, IAX,
..), not only Gtalk or Jingle. I also added another argument so the
administrator must specify the Jabber ID Asterisk should expect an XMPP
message from.

A new dialplan snippet :
context acontext {
    s => {
      Answer();
      SendText("Please enter the extension you which to call");
      JabberReceive(philippe.sultan at gmail.com,NEW);
      Dial(SIP/${NEW}@10.0.0.1);
      Hangup();
    }
};

Mahmoud, can you please test this new version?

Thanks!
