Chiu,

Don't know if you have xAP ( and XPL) 'on your radar' ?  But I suspect it
will go mainstream soon.

I introduced AR to www.o2M8.com at the show.

Thanks Patrick,

=20

I'm using James's xAPSwitchboard app for the call logging etc - very good
bit of software and integrates nicely with Outlook :-)

My early thoughts (from many months ago - which I think I posted on here)
was to have the ability to create IVR menus that would eventually replace
Comfort's rather limited system. I'd like to be able to dial in and hear
th=

status of a whole variety of things from alarm status, history. I'd also
like to be able to set the heating setpoints/on/off etc etc - all of which

I
can currently do locally and from a web browser but not from a telephone.
O=
f
course, my first and foremost need is to get a decent answering phone
service setup (my old answer phone is on it's last legs and has been
waitin=

for *).

Would be nice if xAP Switchboard could integrate with your connector and
Asterisk fully :-) (the first area I can see that would benefit is the
dialer in xSB which currently uses Kevin's xAPTel - could this potentially
use Asterisk?)

=20

Apart from that, there's a whole load of things I want to do that I don't
know I want to do yet! ;)

Thanks,

Yes, I have a connector which does caller-id and allows calls to be
auto-dialled from a specified extension. Used in conjunction with an
outloo=
k
macro, you can dial from your outlook contacts direct. Used in conjunction
with xap-cache, you can build up a web page of recent calls.

I will write it up and bung it on the website.

Is there anything else you would specifically like to be able to do?
Real-time call logging is one obvious item...

I've recently been thinking about installing Asterisk but am unsure as to
the current xAP support for it. Patrick - you were writing a connector for
it weren't you? Is it complete?

Thanks,

Paul.
