[asterisk-users] New GTK Gui for Monitoring and Administration

[j]

Greetings. 

I sincerely apologize if this is an inappropriate use of this mailing
list. 

I would like to announce a new software package intended to extend the
functionality of Asterisk and ease daily maintenance and administration.
The package is called Asterisk Manager Suite (AMS) and contains the
following software: 

A C library which acts as an abstraction layer to make the communication
between applications and Asterisk's Manager Interface easier.
 
A Proxy daemon for Asterisk's Manager Interface that does several things
including: 
        * Implementing nearly all commands available through the Manager
        Interface (and adds a couple commands of it's own)
        * Providing a 3 tiered permission system which limits which
        events are seen and which commands are executable by clients 
        * Maintaining statistics on agents and queues which are then
        optionally propagated as events to clients and/or saved in a DB
        file for later reporting 
        * Translation of Asterisk events and commands between XML and
        Asterisk native format


A GTK GUI application which acts as a front-end for the proxy server
allowing admins to monitor and administrate dynamic configuration of the
server (i.e. NOT the config files), originate calls, manage the internal
database of Asterisk, etc. Managers (non-technical staff) also have
limited abilities to manage people, monitor queues, view statistics,
etc. 

The GTK GUI has been ported to windows as well, binaries are available. 

  The suite's original design is geared toward corporate environments
with call centers, but could be used for other purposes.

The entire suite is released under the GPL. 

More information, screenshots and downloads can be found at:

Again, please excuse this post if this is an inappropriate use of this
mailing list. 

Cheers!
