Hi there,

I've also worked on urtho patch, running stable version on 1.4.19.

If you agree I could help on this project, I'm not much of a programmer
(it's been a long time), but I'm having very extensive knowledge on mgcp
and mgcp ncs.

Also what I'm trying to create correctly is digit collection on modem, so
that asterisk get's entire number instead of collecting one by one. (using
Digit maps) ... I believe that could solve one of my biggest problems atm
--> if you use speed dial (or memory dial) is that in that case phone opens
line, and start's dialing, but in many cases I've seen is that it starts to
dial before asterisk actually gets offhook indication, and signalize to
modem to start sending him digits. In that case it either don't catch any
digits at all or some of them are missing.

Did you noticed this kind of problems also or its just me?

BTW I would add digit map to a configuration file, so that you can change
it quickly on the fly.
