I'm interested in doing some simple, very specific web pages for some of my users -- things like call groups, setting forwarding, and for the receptionist to transfer calls and see calls.  Probably do this in Ruby or PHP, though I'm open-minded.  Anyway, if someone could point me to some documentation -- dead tree, electronic, whatever -- that gives some fairly in-depth detail on this, I'd be most appreciative.

AGI commands and AMI actions and events are documented on the wiki - https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Asterisk+11+Command+Reference

The wiki also has command references for 1.8 and 10.

Asterisk: The Definitive Guide has good chapters on the protocols:

* Book - http://shop.oreilly.com/product/9780596517342.do
* AMI - http://ofps.oreilly.com/titles/9780596517342/asterisk-AMI.html
* AGI - http://ofps.oreilly.com/titles/9780596517342/AGI.html

There are client libraries that handle the protocol details for you. StarPy for Python is a fairly low-level wrapper around AMI/AGI. Adhearsion for Ruby is a fairly high level wrapper for building voice applications. I believe some exist for PHP, but I know nothing about them.
