[asterisk-dev] AMI losing events

[Gabriel Ortiz Lour]

I forgot to metion that I dont need the network layer in my app.
The program that needs the Asterisk events information will be running on
the same machine as the Asterisk it self, thats why I think that might be
another way of getting this info without using the AMI.
