[Asterisk-Users] Callerid ID lookup program updated (CID_rewrite v1.2)

[Technical Support]

Many of you current cid_rewrite (v1.0.0) users probably noticed that your
411 lookup is broken, thanks to another change by the 411.com folks.  So we
fixed it :)  The latest changes include:
1. Adapt to new 411.com format
2. Improved address conversion and extraction from reverse lookup (removal
of odd characters, addition of commas)
3. Addition of "action" variable in callerid database to allow you to build
easy call screening
4. General code cleanup
5. Check the UPGRADE section of the README for more info on how to update
 
For those of you not familiar with the cid_rewrite tool, here's the
(original) feature summary:
1. Standardize incoming caller-id numbers to adhere to US dialing code;
NANPA numbers are reformatted to 1+10, international numbers become 011
(this is customizable with a little PHP knowledge).

2. Look up the associated caller-id name in a mysql table.

3. If not found in the DB, it attempts a reverse-lookup on 411.com (and
extracts the City name even if the number was not found).

4. If not found on 411.com, it attempts a reverse-lookup on Google.com; if
not found, it falls back to pulling the rate-center from telcodata.us.

5. If available, the address associated with the phone-number is also
extracted and inserted into the DB.
 
The latest script is available for download from www.generationd.com.  We
now have the full package available for download.  Note that we are picking
up development as the original author has updated the script in a long time.
 
Regards,
Michelle
