These changes add the ability to run 'make asterisk.txt' just like the existing
'make asterisk.pdf' commands to generate a text document from the TeX files we
have in the doc/tex/ directory. I've also updated a few of the .tex files because
they weren't properly escaping certain characters so they would show up as Unicode
characters (like [U+021C]). Made changes to the configure scripts so it would
detect the catdvi program which is required to convert the .dvi file generated
by latex.
I've also added a few lines to the build_tools/prep_tarball script so that the
text documentation gets generated and added to future tarballs of Asterisk
releases.

From Reviewboard:
CCSS stands for Call Completion Supplementary Services. An admittedly out-of-date
overview of the architecture can be found in the file doc/CCSS_architecture.pdf
in the CCSS branch. Off the top of my head, the big differences between what is
implemented and what is in the document are as follows:
1. We did not end up modifying the Hangup application at all.
2. The document states that a single call completion monitor may be used across
multiple calls to the same device. This proved to not be such a good idea
when implementing protocol-specific monitors, and so we ended up using one
monitor per-device per-call.
3. There are some configuration options which were conceived after the document
was written. These are documented in the ccss.conf.sample that is on this
review request.
For some basic understanding of terminology used throughout this code, see the
ccss.tex document that is on this review.
This implements CCBS and CCNR in several flavors.
First up is a "generic" implementation, which can work over any channel technology
provided that the channel technology can accurately report device state. Call
completion is requested using the dialplan application CallCompletionRequest and can
be canceled using CallCompletionCancel. Device state subscriptions are used in order
to monitor the state of called parties.
Next, there is a SIP-specific implementation of call completion. This method uses the
methods outlined in draft-ietf-bliss-call-completion-06 to implement call completion
using SIP signaling. There are a few things to note here:
* The agent/monitor terminology used throughout Asterisk sometimes is the reverse of
what is defined in the referenced draft.
* Implementation of the draft required support for SIP PUBLISH. I attempted to write
this in a generic-enough fashion such that if someone were to want to write PUBLISH
support for other event packages, such as dialog-state or presence, most of the effort
would be in writing callbacks specific to the event package.
* A subportion of supporting PUBLISH reception was that we had to implement a PIDF
parser. The PIDF support added is a bit minimal. I first wrote a validation
routine to ensure that the PIDF document is formatted properly. The rest of the
PIDF reading is done in-line in the call-completion-specific PUBLISH-handling
code. In other words, while there is PIDF support here, it is not in any state
where it could easily be applied to other event packages as is.
Finally, there are a variety of ISDN-related call completion protocols supported. These
were written by Richard Mudgett, and as such I can't really say much about their
implementation. There are notes in the CHANGES file that indicate the ISDN protocols
over which call completion is supported.

Updated the imapstorage.txt documentation to reflect that issues with

are not seen with more recent versions. Documentation has been updated

It is clear from multiple mailing list, forum, wiki and other sorts of posts
that users don't really understand the effects that the 'canreinvite' config
option actually has, and that in some cases they think that setting it to 'no'
will actually cause various other features (T.38, MOH, etc.) to not work properly,
when in fact this is not the case. This patch changes the proper name of the
option to what it should have been from the beginning ('directmedia'), but
preserves backwards compatibility for existing configurations.

This commit introduces the security events API. This API is to be used by
Asterisk components to report events that have security implications.
A simple example is when a connection is made but fails authentication. These
events can be used by external tools manipulate firewall rules or something
similar after detecting unusual activity based on security events.
Inside of Asterisk, the events go through the ast_event API. This means that
they have a binary encoding, and it is easy to write code to subscribe to these
events and do something with them.
One module is provided that is a subscriber to these events - res_security_log.
This module turns security events into a parseable text format and sends them
to the "security" logger level. Using logger.conf, these log entries may be
sent to a file, or to syslog.
One service, AMI, has been fully updated for reporting security events.
AMI was chosen as it was a fairly straight forward service to convert.
The next target will be chan_sip. That will be more complicated and will
be done as its own project as the next phase of security events work.
For more information on the security events framework, see the documentation
generated from doc/tex/. "make asterisk.pdf"

Someone asked yesterday, "is there a good reason why we can't just put these
modules in Asterisk?". After a brief discussion, as long as the modules are
clearly set aside in their own directory and not enabled by default, it is
perfectly fine.
For more information about why a module goes in addons, see README-addons.txt.
chan_ooh323 does not currently compile as it is behind some trunk API updates.
However, it will not build by default, so it should be okay for now.

CEL is the new system for logging channel events. This was inspired after
facing many problems trying to represent what is possible to happen to a call
in Asterisk using CDR records. For more information on CEL, see the built in
HTML or PDF documentation generated from the files in doc/tex/.
Many thanks to Steve Murphy (murf) and Brian Degenhardt (bmd) for their hard
work developing this code. Also, thanks to Matt Nicholson (mnicholson) and
Sean Bright (seanbright) for their assistance in the final push to get this
code ready for Asterisk trunk.

When connected line updates are received or generated in the middle
of an application call, it is now possible to execute a macro to
manipulate the connected line data. This way, phone numbers may be
manipulated to be more presentable to users, names may be changed
for...whatever reason, or whatever else needs to be done may be.

I still need to set up tests to make sure my examples are completely correct,
but I ran out of time tonight and felt that they at least would give an idea as
to how to use calendaring. I will try to test the examples and do some cleanup
on the docs tomorrow night.

This would allow for one to add a caller to a specific place in the
queue instead of just placing the caller in the back every time. To help
facilitate some interesting manipulations, a new channel variable called
QUEUEPOSITION has been added. When a caller is removed from a queue, his
position in that queue is stored in the QUEUEPOSITION variable. One such
strategy an administrator can employ is to allow for the removal of a caller
from one queue followed by the insertion of the same caller into a separate
queue in the same position.

a dialplan variable.
This adds a dialplan variable (SIP_CODEC_OUTBOUND) which controls
the codec offered for an outgoing SIP call. This is much like the
SIP_CODEC dialplan variable and has the same restrictions. The codec
set must be one that is configured for the call.
