[Freeswitch-users] Canceling sched_hangup and UUID lookup

[Kurtis Heimerl]

No! I hadn't seen it. My brief reading says it may be able to fit our
needs. There are some issues though (for instance, it's commonly known to
never use a float/double for currencies and we do bill per second). So I'll
follow up with that and see if it's a solution.

Barring that, is there any other way to do the two things I'm looking for?
