Review request for Asterisk Developers, Russell Bryant and Olle E Johansson.


Changes
-------

Set asterisk-dev as a review group, not user, to get this to show up on the -dev list.


Summary
-------

This is a best practices document, which was spurned from the discussion on the asterisk-dev and asterisk-users list. It discusses how to utilize FILTER() in the dialplan to only accept characters that you expect to accept. There are also additional sections in the document that discusses proper device names, secure passwords, and reducing typing errors in dialplans.

It should be noted this document is not just about security issues, but rather is a document framework for all best practices information that may be deemed appropriate from the community, for the community.


This addresses bugs 16808 and 16810.
