There is a seemingly functional implementation of chan_voter which speaks the VOTER protocol, and allows interface to a node running app_rpt. It includes a "multi-dimensional jitter buffer", which allows all associated streams to be synchronized, analyzed for signal quality, and presented to app_rpt/Asterisk for use in its associated node. Its current version my be Viewed here. It is still very much in the process of being developed.
