Summary:                    [patch] Remote (called) Party Identification -
chan_sip & chan_skinny implementation
Description: 
Overview:

This patch provides the ability to rewrite the called party information
on
channel types that support it.  Implementations for the SIP (see note
http://bugs.digium.com/view.php?id=1)
and Skinny (see note http://bugs.digium.com/view.php?id=2) channels have been
provided.

Current features are:

1. Make changes whilst the call is progessing though the dial plan, ie:

   exten => s,1,RemoteParty("Voicemail" <123>)
   exten => s,n,Answer()
   exten => s,n,VoiceMailMain()

2. When using call pickup it will rewrite the caller information showing
the caller that was picked up.

3. When unparking a call it will show the caller*id of the parked call.

The ability to rewrite the calling party identification on semi-attended
transfer is planned but doesn't work yet.

Implementation:

Transmission of the remote party data is done using indications with a
new
subtype of AST_CONTROL_REMOTEPARTY, format of the data is:

  "name" <number>|presentation

Any channel specific code is kept in it's _indicate() handler. Once the
channel driver has received the indication it uses the method specific to
it; in the case of SIP it sends a 180/183 response if possible and with
Skinny it uses transmit_callinfo().

Note http://bugs.digium.com/view.php?id=1: The SIP implemenation is only able to
update the remote party
before the call has been answered as there is no re-invite support yet.

Note http://bugs.digium.com/view.php?id=2: I don't have any Skinny phones so no
testing has been done on
that part.

Well, after playing around with this patch and the multi-parking patch, I
decided to move one of our facilities to 1.4.13 from 1.2.x

In doing so, I've discovered a bug concerning this patch.  I am no longer
able to set callerid info from a .call file.  The callerid name is asterisk
and there is no number.  The file is below:

Channel: Local/3501 at sip/n
CallerID: Paging <44>
WaitTime: 5
MaxRetries: 0
Context: polycom-page
Extension: s
Priority: 1

I was using callerid number as the decision maker to send the auto answer
sequence for my polycom phones when paging.  I've worked around it, but
thought I would report it.
