That I understand.  When I submitted the scheduling features patch for
app_meetme I included the ability to customize the column names that
the realtime engine would use.  That was shot down, and a number of the
column names I used for web-meetme/app_cbmysql were vetoed.

I do have a small script that will alter the column names to work with
1.6 Asterisk, and it will be included with WMM 4.0.  If you have other tools
Built around the existing tables and column names, I can understand not wanting
to go down that road.

If you want to send me a copy of your modified app_cbmysql.c I can review it
and see if anything stands out.
