[asterisk-users] Acceptance testing of a new PRI

[Eric "ManxPower" Wieling]

The "something" is generated by Asterisk at the time the call is 
created.  You should never add it, since you don't control that call 
instance info.  In fact, you should almost never care about the call 
instance string.  The -1 means "first instance of a call on this 
channel", a -2 would be seen in you answer a 2nd call for call waiting.
