The T.38 spec defines a streaming protocol over UDP, equivalent to RTP. The latest version also allows the use of RTP. T.38 can also use a non-quite-streaming TCP transport.
T.38 also defines a codec like way to transport the FAX information as digital data (i.e. not sending the modem tones as digitised audio). However, unlike most codecs the two directions are not independent. T.38 processing needs to incorporate much of a T.30 engine, and deal with the information in both directions.

So..need to modify the chan_sip and chan_h323 to recognize the T38 audio?
That makes it sound more like T38 is a codec like 711/729 rather than a protocol like SIP/H323; is that right?
The feature page for the new Sipura-2100 says this:
"Fax - G.711 Pass-Through or Real Time Fax over IP via T.38"
So is that actually read as "Real Time Fax over IP via T.38 using SIP"?
This is where my confusion starts; I don't know if T38 is a protocol or a codec...

Do we have a chan_rtp? T.38 is to FAX as RTP is to audio. In fact, the latest T.38 spec. now at last does what the original should have done, and specifies a T.38 over RTP option.
chan_h323 and chan_sip need to be modified to accomodate T.38.

hi
there are some comments here, http://www.voip-info.org/tiki-index.php?page=Asterisk%20T.38%20Bounty, that people that have earlier offered high bounties for T.38 in asterisk. Please add up, so the one that one day manages to add good T.38 support may get something back for it :)
