I'm working with the iaxclient code. And will try to make it work there. 

With an echo-call to asterisk I can have quite some testing. I'm wondering
what is the best place in an iaxclient to do something with the returned
jb-info (your own upstream), in combination with the current status of the
jb at client side? If this discussion goes beyond the scope of the mailing
group, please mail me personally.
