Yes, of course I expect PBXes to do real-time text. It should be a natural
addition to any audio call.
( Asterisk does if you take the right latest version )
We discussed a month ago or so if we could get the requirement into
SIPconnect, to handle the real-time text medium. But the result of that
discussion was that it was not the right time to include more features.
Therefore my hope stands to this statement about pasthrough of unknown media
lines and media.
( And Hadriel confirmed that it would work ).

Are you expecting the PBXs to do real time text? Did I miss that in the
spec?
