Thanks for all the feedback! I believe we have a strong enough
consensus to move forward. If anyone has any other thoughts on the
direction of this, feel free to post them here anytime, preferably
sooner rather than later so that if there is a conflict or something
really cool we'd love to add, development isn't too far along yet :)

Sorry if I was unclear. Yes, I would love to extend the
"Continue" function to add App and AppArgs as an option to use
instead of Context/Extension/Priority. "Originate" and "Create"
both allow these already. Adding these to "Continue" would be
very helpful.

To elaborate on this further, would it be fine the way it is
currently, where you specify a context and extension, or is
there any interest in being able to alternatively specify an
application and arguments to pass to it?

Absolutely. I really forgot about that, because I've just
molded my design approach to maintain a single ARI
application per node, but that extension to Continue
(similar to Originate's App/AppArgs properties), would be
enormously helpful.

I think having a context that's created when the
application starts sounds like a solid approach.
Another thing to consider is how to move from one
application to the next. Any thoughts on the use of
/continue to tackle this? Is this something you'd like
to be able to make use of in your applications?

+1 to the context idea
Something like /*context = stasis:app_name*/ would
be nice. I presume this could be achieved by
adding the functionality to the PBX module and
most (if not all) channel drivers would work
without modification.
Thanks,
Anil

Oh I do remember the context idea - which
seemed like a good idea at the time because of
not having to change much internally

Correction: when I said the "latter," I
should have said the "third"
option. The last option does not really
work well, since _channels_
map to _contexts_, not CELs.

and one of the things we want to touch on
is ARI -- specifically, the ability to
not have to create an extensions.conf in
order to dial into Stasis. Before we start
working on this, we’d like some direction
from the community on what people would be
looking for. From a user perspective, how
would you expect something like this to
work? Where would you look for information
on how to do this, or where it would be
configured? Any feedback is welcome!
