Summary:                    [patch] T38 support for SendFax/ReceiveFax
Description: 
Adding T38 support to SendFax/ReceiveFax applications. See Additional
Information for details.

There are two patches:
* appfax-v3.patch for asterisk-addons/trunk rev 497 - modifications to the
fax application
* asterisk-t38.patch - temporary (see below) patch for asterik/trunk
revision 94396

!IMPORTANT NOTE! This patch is considered work in progress because it
depends on not yet finished feature of Asterisk - ability to request T38
reinvite on a SIP channel.
Currently, the patch adds this ability itself (asterisk-t38.patch) but it
adds it in a very rude way. It is clearly a hack. When file finishes his
t38insanity branch and Aterisk will get official way of requesting
re-invite, I will update app_fax to use that way instead and
asterisk-t38.patch won't be needed anymore.

irroot,
I think you need raise your question on the dev mailing list - how does
such a design fits Asterisk.

I'm not failar with Asterisk codec infrastructure but I doubt such a thing
is doable. This is because codec should normally operate on audio stream
only while for T38 the codec would need convert SLIN audio to UDPTL.
