[Asterisk-Dev] Support for DTMF style callerid signalling

Hi, 

I sent the message below a few days back to the user list, I did not get
much feedback there. Probably because not too many users are bitten by
this particular issue.
I would appreciate an answer to the following:

- Is anyone planning on implementing support for DTMF style CLIP?
- If not, could someone help me find the proper spot and method to
  implement this?

Thanks,

Armand.
