Dennis,

This is wonderful!  The greater the number of SIP-reachable users, the
more we'll see end-users experimenting with SIP UAs.

VoIP WGers should know that Dennis, Jeremy, and I are working on a
"cookbook" to make it easy for other schools to replicate this
approach.  The basic ingredients are:

  * SIP DNS SRV record
  * SIP proxy integrated with campus directory
  * SIP-PBX gateway

More at the member meeting in DC in a few weeks...
