IIRC, the dialogic channel driver is closed source and only packaged
with Asterisk Business Edition.  I think the closed source part was a
mandate from Intel/Dialogic.  Looking on Digium's site, I only see one
reference to Dialogic and there's no information.  I'm surprised the
feature isn't advertised and even more surprised that part of the
Digium sales team didn't know anything about it.  I'd call again and
ask to speak to the manager if they still don't know what you're
talking about.  Dwayne, in Digium's software dev group, might be able
to better answer your question.
