Actually the prior art goes back to the drafts developed by Karl Malamud
and Marshall T Rose in 1993.  See RFC 1530 et seq.   It was instantiatiated
on tpc.int and has been in continuous use ever since.  This is were
the real innovation and "art" first arose.   Malamad-Rose created the
"art" and placed it in the public domain at that time.   The art here is the
use of a IP-based DNS resolver mechanism for E.164 numbers to reach
a network terminal device.
