asterisk users - Jul 2004 - User-Oriented Management of Asterisk

While I was away on vacation, buried deeply in another thread (New
Asterisk bounty: SIP simultaneous), Olle E. Johansson raised a question
which is close to my heart - Asterisk's management model.

A management model which simply manages telephone extensions and dial
plans is irrelevant to most organisations. We need a model which manages
users and their interaction with the PBX.

I am currently constructing a CIM model of Asterisk from a user
view-point so that Asterisk could offer a WBEM management interface,
thus fitting in with the other enterprise equipment in the office. There
is some interest in this model within the DMTF. Is anyone else
interested?

Sounds interesting to me, and would be to our clients as well.  If you
need help with testing, bug reports etc., let me know.  We don't mind
being guinea pigs. :)
