[Asterisk-Dev] Web Services for Asterisk

[rsenykoff at harrislogic.com]

Hello all!

I've got a couple business implementations of Asterisk under my belt now, 
and am also a grad student. 

For independant study I've been working on pervasive computing integration 
-- finding ways to tie together all the little things that were supposed 
to make our life easier.

I would like to make a significant part of my project be to expose 
asterisk via web services. My thoughts is that I'd run a separate web 
server (Tomcat) as the servlet engine, and have the web services on the 
back-end connect to asterisk.

I'm thinking I would use one of the existing projects for the Asterisk 
Manager API to tie in (Java or Python look good) then maybe also run 
JAGIServer to handle more robust stuff. So I could actually set dial plan 
variables, and then pass them to JAGI for robust handling.

Any thoughts? This would all be open-source of course. :)
