[Freeswitch-users] api - bgapi from ESL are redundant and confuse

[Peter Olsson]

I don't fully understand the confusion here. api/bgapi are just there to
simplify how to send commands (since they are the mosy commonly used I
guess).

I'm pretty sure it would cause huge problems for everyone using ESL today,
if we'd just remove those functions.
