Brian,
Well, ITSP in a box can of course forward 911 calls out T1s or to an
upstream VoIP provider. It can also allow users to edit the address of
the phone and store this in its database. Informing users is a task for
our customers' marketing departments, though we could probably add some
text to the add new telephone page.
Is this sufficient? In particular, do we just need to store the address
on the system, or do we need to transmit it somehow with 911 calls,
update the PSAP's database, etc?

Its my understanding that any ITSP must comply with the US/Canada E911
regulatory service. I don't know the new date as it was changed. Since
not all ITSP's have control of roaming users they must have the user
understand that it may not work in some areas that they are going to be
located while roaming. There are a few services out there that offer
this service that cover the country but mainly it must cover their home
address. Also you have to give the user the ability to change their
address on record in realtime with minimal update time with the
databases.

Subject: [Asterisk-biz] 911 discussion re-run
I'd like to re-open the 911 discussion. I know it's been discussed
before, but not conclusively as far as I can see.
Does anyone know exactly what are the 911 obligations on providers
offering VoIP services to residential and small business users in the
USA?
We'd like to make sure our ITSP in a box product complies before the
formal launch. <plug> http://itsp.demo.integrics.com/ username 'guest',
