Hi!
Has anyone tried fiddling around with sl-modemd yet?

I know, it's not free and uses binary blobs for the DSP part, but it's a full-fledged V.90 softmodem.
Theoretically shouldn't it be possible to modify the sources to not use ALSA for communicating with the AC97 "modem" hardware but to use an Asterisk channel instead?
I have fiddled around with asterisk-softmodem for quite some time now, (that's how I stumbled upon this mailing list while googling) and just can't get it to work properly.
My intentions were the same, being able to provide a couple of analog phone lines on vintage computing events for dialup to BBSes or PPP Internet access. I was pleased to find someone else apparently had the same idea :)
