Summary:                    [patch] Asterisk man page outdated
Description: 
The man page included with Asterisk is outdated. Does not include a number
of options.

There is also doc/asterisk.sgml . It has been updated once or twice in the
past. I don't see any Makefile target to generate a man page from it. 

Furthermore, to reference a recent Debian bug: the man page is supposed to
also be used as a man page for rasterisk, but does not mention it.

Likewise undocumented is the ASTERISK_PROMPT variable.

Honestly, all documentation should probably be shifted to the wiki. I'm not
in favour of having the same documentation in multiple locations,
especially when those locations are not easy to update.
