Review request for Asterisk Developers.


Summary
-------

Various people have asked on the mailing list whether it was possible to get the audio stream from a remote AGI script.  This is usually not possible, because by nature, a remote AGI is connected across a single socket, and audio data typically needs to run across a separate socket, to avoid confusing the command syntax engine.  However, we could certainly open another socket on demand from the AGI script, once it has started, by allowing the AGI script first to listen on a network port for connections, then specifying that hostname and port across the AGI interface to Asterisk.


This addresses bug 16879.

Testing
-------

Compile testing only.  As I said, this is at design phase, and changes may be in order to the "open audio" command before we get to testing stage.


Thanks,
