Description

Is there any plan to introduce Dial Contexts inside version 2.5 ?

I think that it is a very important function, fore sure it is even more important than custom_device_state in the field.

Even a basic Dial context where we could only define trunks availability for each extension would be very very usefull.

Full IP telephony open the door to external phones. Generaly those ones need to have a more strict outbound policy. This can be done actually only with custom_contexts.

I'm still locked to version 2.3 because custom_context module is not supported.

you can use custom contexts and if it doesn't work (which I know many people using it on 2.4 successfully) then fix it or offer a bounty for someone to fix it. Until we redo core trunks/routing we will not introduce something else and this works quite well for what it does.
