this purpose. I have been reading the voip-info pages and have set up AJAM and can get results from doing http requests to the asterisk server, however, this is in the form of an action, such as login, rather than subscribing to an event. I have been looking here for information http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/asterisk+manager+events Does anyone know if subscriptions is possible with AJAM?
