I agree, lets move the discusstion over to that list as it has to be discussed 
there. After we reach an accord on how it should be done we will open up a 
issue on Mantis.

I see this as being two distinctive parts that would need to be tied together:

First:  We need to make the selection of CODECS technology agnostic, There 
currently exist a facility for CODEC selection (SIP_CODEC) in the sip channel 
but not in others.

Second: Discuss is this sould be an outside application that is called from 
within Asterisk or if it should become a function 
Set(CODEC=${OPTIMALCODEC(quality)})
        available options could be:

        quality
        bandwidth
        license 
        


Any comments.
