Yup.

Since the DPMA module requires so many other changes to Asterisk's core in order to function, they weren't able to include it into the already existing branches, as they have a policy to restrict branch updates to fixes/patches and not major new features. So outside of the "certified" versions which are apparently exempt from this, Asterisk 11 will be the first version to support it natively.

On a related note, I actually "won" one of Digium's D40 giveaways a week or so ago. I played around with it for about 30mins, and I have to say that it's probably one of the worst phones I've ever seen. Granted, I wasn't able to take advantage of the DPMA advanced functionality, but as a straight SIP phone, it's mediocre at best. The interface is very counter intuitive, the configuration options (phone, file and web admin) are quite limited, and the overall functionality feels just.....cheap and unremarkable. Especially compared to other phones in it's price class. I'm kind of surprised that Digium would come to an already heavily saturated phone market with a brand new line of devices and not have something remarkable to bring to the table. Sure, DPMA might be great (can't say as I haven't tested it out), but how many people are going to use it? </rant>

Astlinux doesnt use the certified version of asterisk, therefore even if the AVAHI and DBUS systems were in place , the asterisk version would need to be changed.. and then spin yourself a custom build.. advasnce asterisk to say 1.8.11-cert7 (or such) for the DPMA module to function... I havent looked into what dependencies might be required on astlinux to run it, I do know on my regular asterisk machines, it takes a little bit of CPU to run it, esp if you do a reconfigure all and have quite a few phones...
