[OPEN-ILS-DOCUMENTATION] Book of Evergreen: suggestion for additional chapter

[Joe Atzberger]

Maybe "3rd Party System Integration" since it's not all about data access or
retrieval.  Sometimes the integration wants to *do* stuff.

SIP2,
Asterisk (telephony),
and (forthcoming) EDI.

These are all very technical, so maybe not the best for cookbook recipes.
 They assume a lot of specialized protocol-intelligence on the part of the
3rd party.  But there is also enough capability from the SendEmail and
SendFile reactors in the action/trigger framework that you could do dozens
of different integration tasks with them, like updating remote webservers,
pushing files onto print queues, emailing patrons copies of checkout
receipts, etc.
