I played with Asterisk scripting last evening. Started out with an empty extensions.conf and went from there to create a speaking clock. I was trying to copy the old Dutch ptt telecom 002 experience, with a Dutch voice I found at VoIP wiki nl: Asterisk en taal afhankelijke sound files. I run this ofcourse on a ntp-synchronized server, a talking clock has to be correct! I tried to make it run on intervals of 10 seconds, but that doesn't work completely yet.
