Summary:                    callerid in Canada does not work for Voicetronix
Openswitch12
Description: 
I have tried product versions from 1.4.25.1 through to current 1.6.2 beta3.
 None seem to work to have vpb pick up callerid from PSTN trunk or to pass
along callerid presentation for analogue phones connected on FXS ports.
I have tried all available options for callerid=____ in the
/etc/asterisk/vpb.conf file.  I am also using last version of vpb driver
from Voicetronix.

The best I can do without major research is to go with callerid=on and
modify chan_vpb.cc. (see in Additional Information below)
Still, I can't get Asterisk to pass cid from caller to called.  On the
plus side, my CID does show in a SIP call.  :)

I don't mind taking this task on.  Who is the 'expert' on the chan_vpb.cc
code, other than just the entity Voicetronix?
I would like to be able to bounce certain questions once in awhile.
I have nearly 20 years experience in programming and several of those in
realtime programming.  I really need the knowledge of someone on the
voictronix board and basic telephony functionality (handset side).  I
worked as a programmer on the CDR side of the telco, with billing, cell
call legs, etc.
