13:17.41Andrew_M_jsmith: I got the lab results and it turns out I had parvovirus.
13:18.05jsmithAndrew_M_: Interesting... I'll be sure to report that to my doctors as well
15:40.48jsmithleifmadsen: Do you happen to know the proper syntax for time-based include statements?
15:40.58jsmithleifmadsen: Does it match the same syntax as GotoIfTime()?
15:41.20jsmithleifmadsen: (The old Digium handbook suggests otherwise, but I don't trust it any farther than I can throw it)
15:41.37leifmadsenjsmith: ya... I think it's the same syntax....
15:41.50leifmadsenfunny enough someone else was just doing this in a dialplan I was working on. Let me see what they used
15:42.00jsmithleifmadsen: Thanks!
15:42.25leifmadsenthis is what they did (if it works, I have no idea :))  
15:42.26leifmadseninclude => tiffanyopen|09:00-18:30|mon-fri|*|*
15:42.33leifmadsenso looks to be the same formatting
15:42.43leifmadsenI can't imagine it having changed much over the years
15:51.07jsmithOK...
15:51.14jsmithThey're example had "8am-5pm" in the time
15:51.24jsmithAnd "Mon-Fri" as the first parameter
15:51.40jsmithinclude => provider|Mon-Fri|8am-5pm|*|*
15:51.45leifmadsenyuck
15:51.51leifmadsenthat is not right I don't think :)
15:51.52jsmithAlso, do we still use pipes, or do we use commas?
15:51.56leifmadsencommas
15:51.59jsmithHence the reason I'm asking...
15:52.00leifmadsen(post-1.4)
15:52.05jsmith(your example used pipes)
15:52.10leifmadsenyes, it came from a 1.4 system
15:52.24jsmithAlso, when in tarnation did the 'e' extension get introduced, and how did I miss that?
15:52.28jsmithlearns something new today
15:52.50leifmadsen'e' extension?
15:52.57leifmadsenlearned something new too
15:53.03jsmithRead doc/text/extensions.tex
15:53.12jsmithteaches leifmadsen something new today
15:53.21leifmadsencan you just paste it? :)
15:53.21jsmithDidn't know about the EXCEPTION function, either :-/
15:53.38jsmith<PROTECTED>
15:53.39jsmith<PROTECTED>
15:53.39jsmith<PROTECTED>
15:53.39jsmith<PROTECTED>
15:53.39leifmadsenoh wait, maybe I did know about 'e' as I read that file somewhat recently
15:53.40jsmith<PROTECTED>
15:53.44jsmith<PROTECTED>
15:53.46jsmith<PROTECTED>
15:53.47leifmadsenoh ya! that was stuff done by mnicholson
15:53.48jsmith<PROTECTED>
15:54.03leifmadsenwow that's neat
15:54.05leifmadsenI like that
15:54.15leifmadsenwhat version was that first introduced in? I wonder if that made it in for 1.6.0
15:54.24leifmadsenI remember when mnicholson was working on that a long time ago (at least 2 years ago)
15:55.08jsmithNo clue
15:55.13jsmithWouldn't be hard to track down though
16:11.26leifmadsenya, no worries
16:20.18jasonjjohnsonjrwhat is the recommended way for a person to have multiple appearances of the same line on a phone?
16:21.04leifmadseneh?
16:21.21leifmadsenusually on the phone you can set "line appearances"
16:21.34leifmadsenin terms of asterisk, it's still only a single registration
16:21.59leifmadsenjasonjjohnsonjr: reg.1.lineKeys="1"
16:22.01leifmadsen(on polycom)
16:22.08jasonjjohnsonjrI have seen that on the polycoms but have not found it on Cisco.
16:25.23jasonjjohnsonjrnevermind I found it on voip-info. It says to just register the lines with the same username and password
16:25.30jasonjjohnsonjrhttp://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+phone+cisco+79xx
16:27.49leifmadsenuhhh that seems wrong
16:29.08jsmithActually, it's right
16:29.17jsmithSeems silly, but the phone does the right thing
16:29.29jsmith(It doesn't actually end up doing multiple registrations)
16:30.05leifmadsenah gotcha
16:30.06jasonjjohnsonjrThat is a feature of the Cisco firmware I guess?
16:30.06leifmadsengood to know
16:30.30jsmithYeah, that's my understanding
16:30.41jasonjjohnsonjrk. Thanks
16:31.03leifmadsenI haven't used my 7960 in... maybe years
16:32.45jasonjjohnsonjrUnfortunately migrating from Cisco Call Manager I have several hundred 7941 and 7961 phones
16:51.55Andrew_M_jasonjjohnsonjr: What happens if you send 2 calls to the same phone?  Will it automatically ring on the 2nd line button?  It does on the Aastra.
16:53.02jasonjjohnsonjrAndrew_M_: I don't know. Let me test
16:53.14Andrew_M_I mean sent 1 call and while it rings, send another call.
16:57.44jasonjjohnsonjrAndrew_M_: It automatically rings the second line
16:57.59Andrew_M_Is that desirable for you?
16:58.21jasonjjohnsonjrYes. It is what the users are used to
16:58.47Andrew_M_So I guess that means no additional programming is reuired.
16:59.17jasonjjohnsonjrFor that part at least ;-)
17:00.21Andrew_M_My problem here is: I want a second ext ring on Line 3.  I want it so if several calls arrive at once, the user will know which one is which.
17:01.10Andrew_M_One-by-one, the screen will help, but not if 2 or more calls come back-to-back.
17:01.39Andrew_M_Plus the users are used to separate buttons for separate ext.
17:02.55Andrew_M_So if you send 2 ext to the same phone, the phone needs to somehow route the calls to separate buttons based on the called ext.
17:04.14Andrew_M_I don't see a way short of creating multiple SIP accounts for the same physical set, one account for each ext on the set.
17:04.40Andrew_M_There oughta be a better way.
17:04.53Andrew_M_It's trivial on a PBX.
17:05.48Andrew_M_?
17:08.31jasonjjohnsonjrThe separate account method is the way I would do it but there is probably a better way
17:22.05jsmith-awayruns off to his neurologist appt

22:21.32jsmithDocAwesome: Ping?
22:21.34jsmithctooley: ping?
22:22.40codefreeze-lapjsmith: hey, what's the neurologist stuff? How are you?
22:23.19jsmithcodefreeze-lap: Neurologist said "Wow... that's interesting... well, that falls into this odd-ball category.  Try this prescription, and let me know if it's not cleared up in three weeks' time"
22:23.33jsmithLuckily, the headaches are getting less intense
22:24.04codefreeze-lapEating anything different these days? Food allergies can do a number on you.
22:24.57jsmithcodefreeze-lap: Nope... I've examined my life from top to bottom to look for anything different... doesn't seem to be food related, stress related, weather related, athletic-activity related, etc.
22:25.29codefreeze-lap<PROTECTED>
22:25.32jsmithDoctors say there's a chance it's viral meningitis, but if that's the case, there's nothing they can do but let it run its course
22:25.56codefreeze-lapwow, that's really helpful...
22:26.47jsmith(and if it were bacterial meningitis, I'd be dead!)
22:27.07codefreeze-lapbut they at least could treat you
22:27.31jsmithYeah... I have this new medicine to try :-)
22:27.44jsmithNever heard of it before, but it's apparently somehow related to aspirin
22:28.27codefreeze-lapheadaches is headaches, I guess...
22:28.59ctooleyjsmith, pong
22:29.15jsmithApparently this works a lot better than aspirin for this type of headache, but is otherwise pretty safe like aspirin
22:29.44codefreeze-lapjsmith -- hope it works!!
23:32.35ctooleyjsmith-away, good luck on the medicine
