[Asterisk-Dev] Missing in action: call timer stats?

[John Todd]

In the "show channel" output of a particular channel, there is no 
indication on how long that particular channel has existed (in 
seconds.)  Am I just missing something here, or does this value not 
make itself visible anywhere?   There is an unchanging value called 
"Time to Hangup", but it doesn't seem to have much bearing on reality.

So, this leaves two items for discussion:

1) Does a counter of "channel existence" seconds seem like a good 
value to request as a feature addition in the "show channel" summary?

2) Is the unchanging nature of "Time to Hangup" a bug, or can someone 
describe more fully what this is supposed to indicate?
