Hello Henning, I have been working on a P2P SIP project as well. You may have seen some the early internal William & Mary documents and talks from Nov. 2003 and onward on the web (I've been using the name SOSIMPLE). It looks like your approach is extremely similar -- derived from a DHT such as Chord. Additionally, several of us (myself, Cullen Jennings, Adam Roach and a few others) also discussed this topic quite a bit at IETF in Washington and have had ongoing discussions about it. We are currently fleshing out the details. I've started working on an experimental draft on the subject, and have submitted to a few academic conferences for publication. I'd love for you, Kindan Singh, and anyone else who is interested to work together on this. --David Bryan > From: Henning Schulzrinne <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED], sipping <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Date: Sat, 04 Dec 2004 13:44:11 -0500 > Subject: [Sipping] Technical reports on Skype protocol analysis and SIP in > peer-to-peer mode > We have written two technical reports that might be of interest to > members of the list.
