I can only point out what I pointed out in the FCC comment period - iconnectiv already charges both sides for the LERG, which it solely maintains with an iron grip. It maintains many if not practically all of the standards documents, and now we're proposing (well, too late for future tense) to let them have control over number portability now.
The LERG update system and all of its screens, and all the goofy identifiers each held behind their own paywalls and gatekeepers - nothing about it looks to be modernizing any time soon. If you're hoping for forward looking ideas out of this company, you're not going to find them. They have entrenched interest in maintaining the status quo. I'd love for it to be different, but I see this only as more consolidation around the dinosaurs that created this convoluted market to begin with. -Paul > On Dec 5, 2015, at 14:17, Erik Flournoy <e...@eespro.com> wrote: > > Aloha Group, > > I'm curious to know others thoughts on where they believe the traditional > PSTN is going vs VOIP and VoLTE.
