The other option is that you write your own AGI that triggers at the 
beginning of the call and records the info that you want. Then you can 
add another script that checks for "show channels" or something similar 
and removes the temporary Db entry the first script created in case the 
call has been completed.

Downside: You don't get to trace what happened in between, i.e. you are 
missing all the transfer and parking games. And all the queue fun.

Cheers, Philipp
