Hi,

Over the last few months a number of Asterisk users have asked me about implementing signaling protocols most of us would consider obsolete. There is an amazing about of very old equipment still in use. However, I currently have no way to judge whether these inquiries are serious, or more the result of nostalgia :-) As a reference point, Cisco is very new in the telephony market. Their VoIP kit supports a surprising range of protocols, several of which I thought were completely dead and buried (its quite nostalgic searching their documentation on line). It seems some of these fossils might still have a place in the 21st century. :-)

I would like to here from people who really would like to see further signaling protocols made available. System 4, 5, and 5bis are three examples of things which I have actually been asked about. There are a number of protocols based in 2600Hz tones (most US) and 2280Hz tones (mostly Europe), which are probably still spread quite widely in low density point-to-point connections. If there is anything you need, please tell me about it. I want to build a picture of what might be worthwhile tackling.

Regard,
Steve
