A while ago I created a branch based on Asterisk 1.4 called "moremanager" to enhance the manager interface. During that work we agreed on the changes that are now being integrated into trunk. This will mean that trunk will start working differently for those of you using manager. This is VERY IMPORTANT for all third-party applications using Asterisk!

I've documented all the changes in a README [1], documentation that will be integrated in the /doc directory of Asterisk.

I encourage all AMI client developers to start using the "CoreSettings" command after connection. If it doesn't work, your Asterisk is using some version of AMI 1.0. If it does work, you get a report of Asterisk Version and AMI version. Whenever we change AMI in the future, we will change the AMI version number so you can keep track of what you're in communication with.

There are a lot of cleanups and changes to existing actions, some new actions and some new events.

You can now also unload, load and reload modules by using the AMI. When a module is properly loaded and configured, you will get a report so you can start interacting with it.

I will continue merging these changes over the next week or so. Any feedback is, as always, appreciated.

Cheers from a dark and cold Sweden!
