Tough to tell whether a private sector, commercial enterprise or an open, not-for-profit collaboration will be the one to bring the concept to fruition. Do you have any insights regarding the relationship between Neustar and the FCC?

It seems that there is a greater shortage of bureaucratic decisiveness and efficiency than interest per se. I wonder how much the incumbents are dragging their feet because they are not economically served by the success of ENUM, nor the larger journey toward network agnosticism for real-time communication. I already perceive a lot of interest--enough to spawn great projects like e164.org, DUNDI and ISN. These technologies try and accomplish the same or similar end result. Do you have any reason to believe that we are any closer to the IETF’s official real ENUM tree, or are you making the point that there will be even more ENUM-LIKE projects that will be borne of the brave new world of telecom growing tired of waiting for the ‘real’ ENUM.

ENUM is one piece of an overall larger pie that has been in the oven for a long time as you know.

As far as I know there is still no way for individuals or even good sized business to populate the enum.arpa tree--public enum trial notwithstanding. This project is getting old and stale. After all these years it is still providing nothing of use. Am I wrong? Should we care about it?
