[Freeswitch-users] Using Lua Dialplan hunting

[Tim St. Pierre]

Thanks for the help Leon,

I should be able to implement your suggestion, as most of our routing hits the XML dialplan first,
before any LUA work is done.

It would be nice if eventually there was a way to get hunt-destination like we can do with
mod_xml_curl, but this will work until then.
