==================================================

Descripton:
Woomera is an abstracted VoIP protocol used as middleware
to cross connect disparate VoIP protocols.
Woomera channel driver is used to connect a PBX to
an external VoIP Protocol/Stack.
Eg:
Open Source PBX
---------------
woomera client <----TCP/IP-----> woomera server + SIP --> Internet
Open Source PBX
---------------
woomera client <----TCP/IP-----> woomera server + TDM/SS7/PRI/BRI
As the above diagram states, the Woomera Channel Driver implements the
Woomera Client portion of the Woomera Protocol. The woomera server
is responsible for connecting the woomera client to a VoIP protocol such
as SIP, TDM/PRI/BRI/SS7.
The PBX has no idea that its talking to an external VoIP protocol.
The only thing PBX understands is that incoming call arrived on
woomera channel, or place a call on an outgoing woomera channel.
All the Protocol/Stack logic is done on the woomera server.

Compilation:
#> make
#> make install
Options: PBXDIR=<absolute path to pbx source>
By default PBXDIR=/usr/src/asterisk
eg:
#> make PBXDIR=/usr/src/asterisk1.4
#> make PBXDIR=/usr/src/callweaver
Makefile will remember the PBXDIR path in local .pbxdir file.
From then on there is no need to pass in the PBXDIR
parameter.
eg: make PBXDIR=/usr/src/asterisk1.4
make
The second make will know that PBXDIR=/usr/src/asterisk1.4
Each time one passes PBXDIR to makefile the local ".pbxdir"
file will be updated
