asterisk users - Feb 2008 - Mistake in the wiki's description of cmd Pickup() ?

Hi,

according to the description of Pickup() on page 
http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+cmd+Pickup

I can use this command to pickup a call at a certain extensions.

When I try this with e.g.

exten => *8200,1,Pickup(200)

Asterisk tells me that the highest value for the Pickup command is 63.

Wenn I enter the number of a callgroup instead of an extension, I can 
pickup the call.

Well, do I misunderstand something or has the behaviour of Pickup() 
changed? I have tested this with Asterisk 1.4.17-BRIstuffed-0.4.0-test6

I see, that You are using bristuffed *. As bristuff has its own pickup
mechanism, be careful using the right one.

AFAIK You have to use DPickup if You want to pickup a call by extension.
In the bristuffed version of * Pickup is used with a group and DPickup
is used with an extension (AFAIK).

HTH,
