Reposting with no new content is usually considered rude. You were not
being ignored. Probably no one considered themselves qualified to anser
your message yet.

So far you are missing some very important information like what
protocol does go2call use and what codecs do they support. 

You _probably_ will need to purchase g729 codecs for the number of
channels you plan to use so that you don't over run your bandwidth.  

As for passing a call without answer to a outside gateway, no problem,
just answer the line and dial the appropriate outside gateway.
