Hi Guys, I sent this to the Dev list yesterday but some of the ITSP businesses might want to have some input on this proposed API as a way of implementing new 'status' applications with their voice services.
Any thoughts?

As discussed on the 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. 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). 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. Eg. I'm available to take calls but only priority calls, send all level 2 or below calls to voicemail. Or to take advantage of jabber/messenger/sms messaging applications. I'm available to take text messages but not phone calls. 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. 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. I hope this published multi level status API is of interest to you and welcome your comments or from the rest of the list.
