Matt,
Short answer is no. Not at the moment.
Long answer. I'm working on releasing 0.4.5. Kristian is working on
some major structural changes in trunk (changes that are needed to make
upgrading in the future easier). After I get 0.4.5 out, I might have
some time to take a look at what it will take to get 1.4.x to build in
Astlinux. It's on the radar and with 1.4.1 out, most of the bugs should
be worked out. It makes sense to have it included, but it will take
some time as the patches for 1.2 will not just drop into place. Some of
them won't be needed and quite possibly some new ones will have to be
added. If you even look at the difference between the 0.4 branch and
trunk, you'll see that there are several patches that Kristian has added
that are not in 0.4, even though we're using the same version of
Asterisk. In trunk, he's looking at adding realtime support. By
realtime, we don't mean dynamic dialplans. We mean faster interaction
with the hardware. This includes a realtime kernel and some other
changes. Believe it or not, that the minor change in trunk compared to
some of the other changes.
If you wanted to get started, you could look at zaptel 1.4. That may be
an easier package than asterisk itself. The big issue there will be the
other packages that depend on zaptel (wanpipe and rhino). Re-creating
the patches required to get zaptel to build would be easier than what
will be needed for asterisk.
