Contacted Scott Willard at Polycom this morning, he has since been reassigned to other duties within the organization. Mr. Willard's tone seemed optimistic, and he referrred me to Roger Austin, Regional Channel Manager for Voice.

Roger's reply to my inquiry is as follows:

"Cory,

We appreciate your interest in Polycom VoIP Phones.  Polycom deploys our
VoIP phones with our VoIP Platform partners and at this time those Partners
are Sphere, Broadsoft, Sylantro, and Interactive Intelligence.
Unfortunately we are not supporting the Asterisk solution at this time."

I am going to continue to pursue this, but this is the pushback I have gotten thusfar. We are a Polycom authorized reseller, and have compiled some pretty detailed documentation of workarounds and fixes for typical Polycom/Asterisk integration issues. My engineering folks monitor the forum(s) and I have encouraged them to respond to any developer posts where they feel they can offer some insight or solution.

From what I have seen/heard/read at least publically, Asterisk is still not registering on the radar of the larger vendors. I'm curious at what point this might change I guess we'll have to wait and see.
