Perhaps in a similar thread, is it possible to somehow SET the state of a hint from the dialplan? Perhaps a bit like: Set(${ChanIsAvail(hint,234)}=Busy) or perhaps have a pseudo-device facility where you can add it to the end of the hint list to "hint-the-hint". Something like: exten => 234,hint,SIP/myphone&PSEUDO/234 exten => *78,1,ChanAvailIs(PSEUDO/234,Busy) exten => *791,ChanAvailIs(PSEUDO/234,Unknown) This could be very useful for presence indication.
