[SR-Users] Testing dialog module (and acc with dialog cdrs)

[Anthony Messina]

Hi Daniel. Thank you for back porting the acc and dialog changes to 5.6 -- I 
continue to test, but can report that the updates on the 5.6 branch through 
bfc5c2aacb272e91da80096ef27fbe6fcfe9a746 are working properly for acc/dialog-
based CDR generation.  -A
