Holger,

I'm not suggestion that we plug only one scripting language in.  Quite the contrary, I'm suggesting that there should be a robust structure to plug an arbitary programming/scripting language into Asterisk.

The goal of the working group would be to regularize the information so it's available to all APIs, regularize the APIs so they are the same no matter how one hooks into Asterisk, and to create hooks into integrate an arbitrary language into Asterisk.

Sound reasonable?

Thanks,

David

As much as I love Python: it would probably not be useful, because in 
Python there is the equivalent of the Big-Kernel-Lock in Linux 2.4.

So, do it in Perl or Lua (much more lightweight).
