I posted bug 12357 about the libpri changes for implementing the
QSIG connected line stuff. It's still missing the possibility to
update the name after a transfer, but I'm working on that. Also I
noticed some problems with charset conversions when dispatching QSIG
call to SIP client and getting those updates. Otherwise the patch
works perfectly.

You should check out that and the chan_zap patch from bug 8824.
