[Freeswitch-users] why is the user directory in core and not a module

[Vik Killa]

I already use XML_CURL to dynamically provide the user directory.
I am interested in writing a module in C to provide the user directory.
I want the module to use PostgreSQL to populate user information and give
it to FreeSWITCH.
