Dale,

I am not sure I understand your proposal. I had assumed that the B2BUAs
concerned would not be CC-aware, so would simply use there own internal
algorithms for generating call-IDs.

What I had in mind for solving the problem is that the call-ID (or some
other value unique to the monitor) be returned in the response to the
initial INVITE request, e.g., as part of the URI in Call-Info. We would
then be completely independent of any unwanted treatment of Call-IDs by
intervening B2BUAs.
