As some of you already know our software development team is in the early 
planning stages of extending the current park service to include valet parking. 
Before we undertake this endeavor I thought it would be a good idea to get some 
insight from the developers or those that are familiar with the code.

We planned on using FreeSWITCH to accomplish this but there are a few problems 
with doing this:


*         The mod_valet plugin is woefully incomplete. The missing 
functionality is:

o   Ability to transfer parked call to the original parker after timeout

o   Ability to transfer parked call to a predefined extension after timeout

o   Ability to transfer call back to original parker by pressing 0 or a 
different predefined key

o   Ability to transfer call back to a predefined extension by pressing 0 or a 
different predefined key

o   Call is not released by FreeSWITCH when retrieved (media still travels 
through FreeSWITCH)

o   Unable to monitor park slots via BLF

o   # key is hardcoded to disconnect the call

*         Attended Xfers to FreeSWITCH with this module fail on the first 
attempt. See http://track.sipfoundry.org/browse/XX-9317

I was toying with the idea of having the software devs consider writing this up 
the same way that voicemail and authorization codes are written, using 
FreeSWITCH sockets and whatnot, but that still leaves three problems:


*         The attended Xfer issue mentioned above

*         Call is not released by FreeSWITCH when retrieved (media still 
travels through FreeSWITCH)

*         Unable to monitor park slots via BLF

Any insight on how this should be approached would be greatly appreciated.
