<p><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">Are there compelling reasons *<b><span style="font-weight: bold;">not</span></b>* to use api for simple commands like "show
channels" or "oz list"? Since api is blocking and bgapi
is non-blocking I just wondered if there are recommendations for when to use
each one. I can definitely see why you'd use bgapi for an
"originate" command. I didn't see anything on the wiki
that discussed when to use api vs. bgapi so I'll be happy to write up a
blurb on the recommended use of each one.</span></font></p>
