New version of ISDN4BSD in the works

Hi,

My ISDN4BSD is making some steps into the TCP/IP domain. In the next 
version of ISDN4BSD, chan_capi will be extended to talk to remote CAPI 
devices. There are currently two supported protocols, BINTEC and a new 
ISDN4BSD only one.

Example:

env CAPI_CLIENT_HOST=10.70.4.21 asterisk

At "10.70.4.21" an instance of a new utility called "capiserver" is 
running. This allows more simple devices to interface with the ISDN or 
hardware and then a more powerful computer can run the Asterisk in a 
jail, for example.

Also ISDN4BSD will get support for emulating a Yealink USB phone device. 
To use this feature you will need a supported platform which has got a 
USB device port. This feature is currently used for interfacing towards 
telephony applications in non-FreeBSD systems. Or can be used in 
general, that when your USB audio is playing something, you will get an 
incoming call ...
