Because my first inplementation was before Curl() was part of Asterisk.

I am very familiar with Lynx and it wjust works.  Never an issue.

Don't enable or use apps on an Asterisk system if there is another, reliable
app that can be used.

I keep Asterisk's role to a minimum.  I only load the apps that are needed
for the implementation.  I usually build them all, but, either I do a noload
or rename the .so.

I also try to put other functions of different machines, to segregate the
mission critical, or at least the as much Asterisk from other features.
 Databases, fast-agi, HylaFax, recording calls, and whatever else.

It is just the way I do things, budget providing of course.  I want the core
being as stripped down OS, apps, and Asterisk as possible.

Thanks,
Steve T
