Hi Leif,

I am happy to hear that a new release of The Book is in the works!

I will have a look at Russell's script as soon as I am back at my work chair: there is however something I am very curious about: it is how you ask Asterisk, over AMI, to launch an external command, script, etc.

I was (falsely) assuming that you need a channel to launch a script upon..

To be able to trigger 'commands' over AMI, before any channel exists, opens immense possibilities!!

TIA,
Aldo
