[asterisk-users] Enhancements for the Queue application

[Julian Lyndon-Smith]

issue #8126 (http://bugs.digium.com/view.php?id=8216) on mantis is a 
patch for the queue system which allows you to specify a macro to run 
when a member is connected to a queue call, either by a configuration 
parameter in queues.conf or as an optional parameter on the Queue 
application.

It also allows you to specify that certain variables are set when the 
member is connected.

if setinterfacevar is yes
MEMBERCALLS is the number of calls that interface has taken,
MEMBERLASTCALL is the last time the member took a call.
MEMBERPENALTY is the penalty of the member
MEMBERDYNAMIC indicates if a member is dynamic or not

if setqueueentryvar is yes
QEHOLDTIME callers hold time
QEORIGINALPOS original position of the caller in the queue

if setqueuevar is yes
QUEUEMAX maxmimum number of calls allowed
QUEUESTRATEGY the strategy of the queue;
QUEUECALLS number of calls currently in the queue
QUEUEHOLDTIME current average hold time
QUEUECOMPLETED number of completed calls for the queue
QUEUEABANDONED number of abandoned calls
QUEUESRVLEVEL queue service level
QUEUESRVLEVELPERF current service level performance

It also adds a new function called QUEUE_VARIABLES(<queuename>)  which 
sets the Queue variables described above. This means now that you can 
access queue stats for a certain queue from within the dialplan.

If anybody can, I would appreciate it if you could test it to see if it 
works for you.

Suggestions and comments are most welcome.
