Dear OpenERP friends,

The asterisk360 module (http://www.valuedecision.com/asterisk360/) has 
been implemented to allow automatic on-screen pop-up on incoming phone 
calls. In order to be able to trigger an action on the client when the 
server is notified of a phone call by the Asterisk server, the 
asterisk360 had to :
- implement it's own Websocket server using Python/Twisted/autobahn,
- load a JS Websocket client in the OpenERP Web interface.

It works, but having to run a separate daemon complexifies the software 
architecture of this solution. I think that all this should be part of 
the OpenERP framework.

This recent blog post http://www.openerp.com/node/1277 says :
<<

We already have a few ideas that are in our development backlog:

Be "real time" using websockets rather than http. Emails and answers 
should work like a chat if both the sender and the recipient are active 
at the same time. A small conversation is often more efficient than a 
series of emails back and forth to take a decision.

Could we know more about these plans ? What is possible in OpenERP 7.0 
framework if I want to trigger an action on the client side ?

Thanks in advance for your answers,
