[Freeswitch-users] skill-based ACD

I can tell you from years of painful experience, don't use asterisk for
queues.
see http://www.freeswitch.org/node/117

You don't have to use FS, but please don't let the asterisk siren lure you
to the rocks.

mod_fifo is like a tool with basic functions you can exploit however you
wish, it does not try to do high level
features because those are best left in external logic.


mod_fifo has priorities which means each individual fifo is really an array
of 10 fifos
when you set the priority you are choosing which index in the array to
insert the caller.
when an agent belongs to a queue he drills down the array from 0-9 so you
could for instance put everyone in 5 by default and put more
important people in 0 so they always go to the front

when you assign an agent to take calls off hook you can set a fifo_pop_order
variable that tells you which array indexes to service and in what order.
so if you pretend slot 1 is for general problems and slot 2 is for hard
problems you can put one agent in 1,2 and a more stupid agent in just 1

*shrug*
