What does this do?

Hi,

I'm having an hard time understanding what does this app do. Could you describe it?

It was something I was playing with a while ago to have an external screener screen callers before putting them on air for our radio station. It was never finished, but I believe it has basic functionality for a host to view a list of incoming callers (who are waiting in a queue), pull them onto their air (by connecting them to a specific extension) and hang up when done. The need for this arose when it became clear that the SIP client being used to put callers on air would not be running on the machine that the host typically looks at, so the whole thing effectively had to be remote.

Thanks.
I can't understand what slack has to do with it. Do you push a notification for incoming calls?

Oh, i forgot about that! I haven't touched this in years. Incoming calls are announced in slack, and outgoing calls can be originated from slack.

that is actually pretty sweet
