 I've done it both ways to a G3R and an 8700. The h.323 gateways from
T1 on carrier interconnect side to an 8700 via h.323 signaling group
are actually pre-1.2 Asterisk (still!) and the folks using it are very
happy with it.

 The only gotcha I would warn you about would be packetization between
the Avaya and Asterisk on the RTP side of things. If you don't get
that right, you won't get good sound quality on the calls.
