I have a question I'd like to throw out there to get some feedback on. Originally when DUNDi was first released into Asterisk, there was a DUNDi test network that would allow anyone to peer and start playing with the protocol. I guess the purpose was to test the concepts and the implementation to determine where the bugs were, etc. It seemed to be pretty successful, but after a couple of months interest died in it since there was no real practical use for it (or at least no one thought of one).
I'm interested in starting the test network back up, if for anything to allow people to have a test bed to start utilizing DUNDi. However, I'd like to find a more practical and useful reason for the network to exist, but I haven't been able to think of any cool uses for the technology in that type of environment. So I guess I'm asking for your guys opinions and thoughts. Does anyone have a practical and useful idea for a DUNDi network for the community? We already have Free World Dialup (and a number of other providers) giving us free "phone numbers" to route between people, so that idea seems to be done to death. Perhaps there isn't really a demand or use for this technology unless we're routing information between our own internal systems, or if there is PSTN access (in which case, is there ITSPs who might be interested in sponsoring access to the PSTN if we allowed a little advertisement to play that might say something like, "This call sponsored by XYZ. For more information visit XYZ.com"?). I'd like to see if there is some sort of useful function for DUNDi in a community network that I might be missing here.
