Yes, people mention DUNDi ocassionaly. It's a shame it's completely useless as their is no documentation for it.

I'm not quite certain as I build my call routing
on scripts instead of Asterisk built in commands,
but I beleive Dundi should be able to help you out
in situations like this.

After reading the patchy docs on DUNDi, I kind of got the impression that it _might_ be able to do that sort of thing, but the docs where so bad they where useless. And while we're on the discussion topic, why doesn't Digium release some docs on DUNDi? It's their baby after all. It seems to be that almost no one uses it, simply because there's no docs that explain how to do it.
