asterisk users - May 2006 - CallerID retain on internal transfer

I was just looking through the Wiki for some info on how to retain the
original caller's callerid when make transfers to internal extensions, and I
came across the parameter below:

useincomingcalleridonzaptransfer=yes

There is nothing in the zapata.conf file from vers. 1.2.7 so I am wondering
if this is still a valid parameter. If not, does anyone know how I can do
this?

Thanks,
Joe

I've been wondering about how to do what you're describing as well!
Anyone
know how it can be done?

Regards,
Bevan

1.2 will keep the original Caller*ID when doing a transfer.  1.0.x did 
not do this.

Any other ideas?

We use SPA, snom and aastra phones, and I had assumed that this was a
limitation of the SIP protocol. I would be pleased to be told I am
wrong on this one :)

Hi,

From
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.telephony.pbx.asterisk.user/148565/focus=149455,
you can read that :
- SIP allows CallerID to be changed at the point when 2 separate calls are
bridged to one ...
- May 2006 trunk version of Asterisk did not support this behaviour at that
time.

Is it still true today ?
Is this feature considered for inclusion in 1.4 or 1.6 development cycle ?

Regards
