[Freeswitch-users] where to put perl code to add cdr info

[Steven Ayre]

Just load both mod_xml_cdr and mod_cdr_csv at the same time.

Both modules will generate a cdr for each call, mod_xml_cdr submitting
to the webserver or writing to a .xml file and mod_cdr_csv writing a
CDR for the same call to the .csv
