queues: ringinuse for "skip busy agents" and asterisk 1.4+

thanks for the input, we'll take a look at adding this. However, your original issue you reported in the forum seems like something else is wrong on your system. You are correct that all this feature does is treat it as if there is no server side CW enabled. However this should work fine in 1.4 and should work with the softphone you are using. The dialparties.agi script should detect that another line is occupied on that phone and not even try to call it. (You will see the queue code attempt to call but it will be blocked and thus the next phone should be immediately tried).

Thanks. I've posted further comments on the forum.

jury: whats the verdict here?

not sure - I think the decision is that if it is 1.4 or higher, there is no harm in adding this - it would be great if someone could do some testing and see if it causes any problems. It may help for people doing corner case stuff like using channel Agent but should not hurt normal usage I don't think.

I tested ringinuse with 1.4. For Local agents, it doesn't make any difference and it doesn't hurt either. For Channel agents, ringinuse seems to work fine. My 2 cents.
