[Asterisk-Dev] Basically a C AGI app.

Oh, there's one more thing to consider: The C API apparently has zero
compatibility standards. This means that any of your apps are subject to
breaking at any point with no warning :). At least with AGI, there's more
effort to ensure everything keeps working.

Do you want to:

a) write an additional application module for Asterisk
or
b) do AGI through a program written in C instead of Perl?

Case b) is quite simple, case a) is a little harder because the Asterisk
sourcecode is not that well documented at the moment. Anyways, you can
look at the sources of applications like Goto etc. to get a feeling for
it.

Cheers
Robert
