SIP in higher education

[Quincy Wu <>]

Dear Ben & Dennis:

We are preparing a SIP hands-on workshop in APAN (Asia-Pacific Advance 
Network) meeting in July, which prevents me from attending your workshop 
in the US.  However, I would love to know more about your implementation 
in Internet2, especially your conclusion in the workshop on how you plan 
to incorporate ENUM to allow users reaching SIP.edu URIs from legacy 
phones, and other issues.

As I mentioned to you in Hawaii, we are developing a Voice-Activated 
Phonebook to make it easier for users to call from legacy phones.  The 
goal of our project is to create a service in our VoIP network so that a 
user can dial 411 and speak the name of the callee, and the system will 
find out the SIP URI of the callee and make the call for him.  As you 
can predict, this service is developed as a normal SIP UA, so it is easy 
to be integrated into any existing SIP VoIP system.

After all, according to our experience, E164 numbers may not be a good 
idea for SIP.edu.  As Dennis keeps on telling people, "It is difficult 
for you to rememorize the phone numbers."  Don't you think so?  :-)

Anyway, thanks for subscribing me to the mailing list.

Sincerely,
Quincy
