[OpenSIPS-Users] opensips 2.1 call_center queue position

Hi Jonathan,

When a call is mapped to a flow / queue (before playing the welcome 
message), we know the ETA (estimated time to wait) and when is placed in 
the queue (before playing the queuing) we internally know the position 
in the queue.

Would it help to have the position in the queue placed into a custome 
SIP header, when sending the INVITE to the message_queue URL ? or to the 
welcome message ?
