	<title>Overview</title>
	<para>
		This module allows executing Ruby scripts from the Kamailio
		configuration file.
		It exports all KEMI functions to Ruby in order to access the
		currently processed SIP message. These functions are available within
		the Ruby module 'KSR'.
	</para>
	<para>
		IMPORTANT: because of Ruby language policy (which require that a public
		submodule name has to start with an uppercase letter), the KSR submodule
		names are with all letters uppercase. For example, what is documented as
		KSR.sl in KEMI docs, must be used as KSR::SL in Ruby scripts.

			Set the path to the Ruby file to be loaded at startup. Then you
			can use Ruby_run(function, params) to execute a function from the
			script at runtime. If you use it for KEMI configuration,
			then it has to include the requited functions.

			When set to 0, the KSR::PV Ruby submodule is implemented with the
			internal functions from the app_ruby module, otherwise the ones from
			core are used.

			Note: when set to 1, there were crashing reports that are under
