or disabled by the very admins that find themselves stranded on the freeway when their cars fuel gets shut off because asterisk crashed while they were away :) In all honesty rather than going with this idea too much further and trying to ram a technology into a place it may not be well suited for, how about looking at how asterisk deals with presence information. It could do presence which would include extra data, how that gets used is upto the individual channels and apps that all interoperate with it. Having a GPS attached to a vehicle which relays the data to a server could just extend the existing infrastructure. While I dont think that something that cuts the fuel upon theft (which has to first be detected) is a good way to go for an asterisk add-on, certainly integrating this into asterisk so you can call a TTS app that would give you control over it may. That could report location, average speed, etc. That could also all be done without any modification to asterisk itself and just via an addon like an AGI. -- Trixter http://www.0xdecafbad.com Bret McDanel Belfast +44 28 9099 6461 US +1 516 687 5200 http://www.trxtel.com the phone company that pays you! _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com-- asterisk-biz mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-biz
