Just a note on dialplan programming here - I understand that the Jump to 
n+101 is depreciated now, and keeping track of line numbers is something I 
decided to give up on when I left BASIC programming on an Apple II, 25 
years ago...

So from this:

  exten => s,4,GotoIf($["${CALLERID(number)}" = "15552221313"]?15:5)

to this:

  exten => s,n,GotoIf($["${CALLERID(number)}" = "15552221313"]?trapped)

(no need for the false jump here either)

and from this:

  exten => s,15,HangUp

to this:

   exten => s,n(trapped),Hangup

Always check the README.variables in the docs directory too.
