Re: [Ecrit] IETF ECRIT Design Team on Premature Call Termination

["James M. Polk" <[e-mail]>]

OK, fair, I'm glad we are going in the precise direction.  But I am 
curious about who determines "precise" within the PSAP (per your 
suggestion). Is it the call taker themselves, or is this somehow 
incorporated into a signaling protocol?

It seems like the IETF is concerned with how this can be done in 
signaling somehow.

I'm wonder aloud if this can be done in signaling either 
automatically (as a response or new transaction) to the calling party 
when some automaton determines it has received enough information 
(which is determined by a configurable API to know which fields or 
buckets get filled from the inbound signaling)?

Or if the call taker hits a button - indicating they have enough 
information to allow the caller to terminate the call -- knowing 
there is sufficient location and/or callback information for this call?

To me, these are completely different.  In fact, I could argue that 
the idea that a call taker make a mental decision that they have 
enough information about the caller is something that is a brand new 
type of requirement, and one that inherently doesn't have precedent 
in today's architectures anywhere.  This means we need to look at 
this as a fresh req that may or may not be necessary.

just thinking out loud...
