What both Steve Davies and I were interested in at AstriDevCon was the 
ability to do the equivalent of the UserEvent() dialplan application, so 
that there's a way to send a message from an ARI application through 
Asterisk to something listening on AMI (and perhaps ARI too). This is 
very useful when you have a complex telephony system with different 
components written by different people/companies but which need to be 
aware of each other's telephony actions.

We weren't talking about ARI to log files specifically, but I agree that 
this would also be very useful to have, for exactly this sort of 
example. Having logging of all telephony actions in one place is a Very 
Good Thing for auditing and debugging purposes.
