[Asterisk-Users] What about a higher level configuration language

[Marc Storck]

Why VMxyz, does every line end up at the VM when it's busy or 
unavailable or unregistered.... btw we could then also add a rule for 
the case the user agent has registered with * (bristuff addon n+201)

Best Regards,

Marc
