[Freeswitch-dev] ESL and the directory

[Anthony Minessale]

if you are going to make a gui you would probably want to make a database
schema to go with it and make higher level abstractions
and then use xml_curl or the new xml_oddbc to generate the xml back to FS
rather than try to use the static configs.

you can still generate some of the configs static that do not change often
but for things like directory and dialplan you should be
doing an xml hook so your app and FS both use the same database schema to
get/set the data.

ask Swk on irc he has one in his contrib.
