Unfortunately, it IS true that Lucent is foot-dragging on v.90 support.
To my knowledge, every other term server player in the market has v.90
now (Bay, Cisco, USR, Ascend are the ones I know of)

So, Lucent is falling behind, and we are falling behind with them.
Whether or not the standard is "official", other vendors are offering
superior v.90 support, and our customers expect it. Apparently this is
part of the price of sticking with Lucent/Livingston.
