Asterisk Manager Suite (AMS) is a collection of software; an abstraction library called Asterisk Manager Interface (AMI), a proxy daemon called Asterisk Manager Proxy (AMP), and a gui client interface called Asterisk Manager Administrator (AMA).

The intention of the software is to make management and administration of the Asterisk Open Source PBX easier. The software is currently targetted at corporate environments with call centers but plans for further expansion exist.

The C library, libami (AMI) is intended to make executing commands through Asterisk's Manager Interface easier. The library is used extensively in both AMP and AMA, although you could use it in your own software as well.

The proxy daemon is intended to remedy an outstanding issue with Asterisk's Manager Interface: The interface does not deal well with excessive connections. To get around this, a proxy is a suitable solution. As well as simply being a proxy, AMP has other functions as well, including recording statistics and activities of call center agents.

AMA is intended to be a gtk application for monitoring and administrating an Asterisk server. AMA requires AMP for connectivity and has many functions as well as some planned in the future. AMA was first inspired by Asterisk's own gastman client, which was well done, but to small to be of any real use to anyone in a corporate environment except perhaps admins.

AMP is version 0.9.2
AMA is version 0.9.4
Minor clean up of the channels frame
