Description:	The [Wiki for REF_DEBUG|https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Reference+Count+Debugging] has some outdated/incorrect information. # We should recommend updating to the versions which include the menuselect option. # Information about enabling REF_DEBUG for specific modules should be removed.  This is no longer supported and never worked well anyhow. # Uploading full refs log is not possible, it almost always exceeds JIRA attachment limit.  We should recommend that people run refcounter.py with the '-n' flag. # Example refs file needs updating. # Information about old refcounter utility should be removed, replaced with information about refcounter.py I realize that the old information applies to older versions of Asterisk.  Any bug that could be triaged by a refs log needs to be reproducible on the current version of that branch, otherwise there is a decent chance it's been fixed.  The [Asterisk Issue Guidelines|https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Asterisk+Issue+Guidelines] page clearly says to update to latest in branch. If needed I can make the changes myself, I'm posting here to run it by other bug marshals to accept objections.  I feel these changes will make it easier to request more information from users.

By: Corey Farrell (coreyfarrell) 2014-11-05 12:55:15.391-0600 I've made the changes.  [~rnewton] can you give my changes a review, let me know if anything doesn't make sense to you? By: Rusty Newton (rnewton) 2014-11-07 07:43:18.627-0600 Sure! I'll take a look. By: Rusty Newton (rnewton) 2014-11-07 08:05:13.731-0600 It looks great to me [~coreyfarrell]! Thanks a ton!
