[Freeswitch-users] Dial Plan Question

I think the real question is what are you trying to do ... for some 
things it's very easy to just whip up a static XML file and be done with 
it.  For others you probably want some sort of interaction with a DB. 

The options here are pretty endless:
    --   XML curl
     -- handing off the call to a script call from a static dial plan 
(use lua if there is going to be any load)
    --   event_socket
    --   mod_lcr

But ultimately I think it's what you're trying to accomplish that 
matters.  For a PBX install I'd say static files is probably about as 
easy as it is going to get.  For delivering a service you'd probably 
want interaction with a DB.  I've use XML curl a lot and have even 
starting using direct DB queries from static dialplans using 
mod_memcache and memcachedb (not memcache ... persistent storage).
