<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>Hi
Russell,<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>Great
idea to send this out to the ast-dev list, the more input the better.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>As
discussed on the <a href="http://www.x2z.eu/">www.x2z.eu</a> Asterisk Talkshoe call
last Friday (it’s on 12.30pm est every Friday for 45 mins in case anyone
else on the list wants to join us) it was very exciting to hear that you will
be working on “status” across multiple asterisk servers. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>Just
a recap for people on the list who weren’t on the call, my question was “if
you are going to implement Status across multiple servers why stop at just on
or off as a query result (russell’s initial comments were you could tell
if a handset was on the phone/off the phone, eg busy / free OR logged in/logged
off he also mentioned the main driving reason was to check voicemail message to
be accessed or nil message).<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>My
suggestion in order to make status truly a substantial feature would be to
implement ‘tier’ levels of status in order to take advantage of the
new services such as Iotum’s Talk Now. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>Eg.
I’m available to take calls but only priority calls, send all level 2 or
below calls to voicemail.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>Or
to take advantage of jabber/messenger/sms messaging applications. I’m
available to take text messages but not phone calls.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>My
real desire would be to have a published API for tiered status so that people
could write applications against this. Eg a softkey on my Polycom can now move
me into “priority only calls” against this code.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>This
would allow people like Lumenvox to write code that would take an inbound call,
convert to text then deliver this to my “text” application rather
than my handsets voicemail.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

Thank you very much for your interest in what I had to say. I have</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>>
looked at Corraleta a little bit before. It is very exciting. I
have</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>>
never used it, though. I would definitely be interested in a license to</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>>
play around with it.</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>>
</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>>
If you would like to have any further discussion about presence type</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>>
features outside of the developer conference, then let's take it to the</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>>
asterisk-dev mailing list. I really try to avoid having private</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>>
discussions about development planning for Asterisk. It is best if we</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>>
give the entire development community a chance to contribute to the</span></font></p>
