asterisk users - Feb 2006 - Sip + Cisco 7940/7960 + Panel + DND + queues

Hi all,

Running bristuffed 1.2.4 system with solely Cisco 7940/7960 phones
with SIP.
I'm using also op_panel 0.25 (snapshot).
I'm using * queues.
I want to properly implement DND via *78 and *79.
I'm using op_panel's documentation RECIPE 1 solution with astdb and dnd
variables and this is fine for FOP.
The DND works in normal cases, since I catch it with my Macro dialsip,

HOWEVER

The Queue handling does not look at my astdb DND settings... so the
Phones that are member of a queue keep ringing, even after pressing
*78 and being in DND state.

Any solution ?

The only way 'around' that I see is to Dynamically Add and Remove the
members from the queue when people set DND on/off.
I do not like this, since the 'knowledge' with which queue members are
related, is defined twice (in the Dialplan and in queues.conf)

Is there a way to put a Sip phone from the dialplan in state 'Busy' ?
(= alternative work around)

Is there a way the let 'Queue' use my Macro for Dialing the members ?
