Comments:	By: Matt Jordan (mjordan) 2014-08-12 11:18:37.784-0500 Unfortunately, {{chan_h323}} has been unsupported for a long time and was marked deprecated. Due to there being a supported replacement channel driver, {{chan_ooh323}}, {{chan_h323}} was removed from the Asterisk source tree in Asterisk 13: http://lists.digium.com/pipermail/asterisk-dev/2014-June/068363.html As such, this issue will be closed out as "Won't Fix". I recognize that this issue has been open for a long time, and as a project, we're sorry that the patch attached this issue didn't receive more attention. We've made some changes in the way the patch process works to try and alleviate the issue of patches not receiving attention; for more information, see [Patch Contribution Process|https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Patch+Contribution+Process] on the Asterisk wiki. If you still need H323 support and are using Asterisk, I'd recommend switching to {{chan_ooh323}}, as it has a dedicated module maintainer who can help with patches to that channel driver.
