asterisk users - May 2010 - Getting presence working in 1.6.2

I am running asterisk 1.6.2.6 and have configured hints for our 
extensions and have a couple of Aastra 6755i test phones. The phones 
register fine but 'core show hints' shows the lines as idle even if they
are in use.

I read the wiki and see mention about needing to set call-limit in 
asterisk 1.4 but that has been depreciated in 1.6 so what is the way it 
should be done in 1.6?

Thanks

I set

  callcounter=yes

in sip.conf.

Thanks that works perfectly.

In which future release of Asterisk are we (since it is open-source, we
theoretically have "some" control) going to stop renaming and
deprecating
features?
