I do not know how familiar you are already with Asterisk - but for 
developing "telephony applications" most of the people actually doe not 
have to modify the code at all.  Asterisk has lots of 
applications/functions/interfaces which allow you to define "telephony 
applications" on a higher level in the dialplan (extensions.conf), in 
external scipts (AGI) or in external applications (AMI).

So, before starting coding you should verify if maybe all is already 
possible by just putting the existing pieces together.
