The script's here (all half-a-dozen lines of it): <a href="http://www.softivr.com/wiki/index.php/Parking" rel="nofollow">parking example</a>, and you can test it by calling 1-253-243-1137.

I'm the Chair of the Downtown Development Authority (DDA), that manages the parking system in Ann Arbor (as well as does many other things: www.a2dda.org). This is very cool stuff you are working on here. I'd love to get this up and going officially. We have the topic on our Operations Committee agenda for Wednesday Jan 28th (11am). I think this kind of data availability will be a great customer service to downtown patrons. Hi.

The component re-creates the core capability of the example, you may find it here: http://jsgoecke.github.com/annarbor_parking/ One point to note, is that I believe the optimal Asterisk context looks like this: [my_context] exten => my_extension,1,AGI(agi://uri_to_agi_server) Therefore, all of the call logic happens in Adhearsion and therefore Ruby.
