This document contains the information relevant to the development of
the inter-networking interfaces underway in the Public Switched
Telephone Network (PSTN)/Internet Inter-Networking (PINT) Working
Group. It addresses technologies, architectures, and several (but by
no means all) existing pre-PINT implementations of the arrangements
through which Internet applications can request and enrich PSTN
telecommunications services. The common denominator of the enriched
services (a.k.a. PINT services) is that they combine the Internet and
PSTN services in such a way that the Internet is used for non-voice
interactions, while the voice (and fax) are carried entirely over the
PSTN. One key observation is that the pre-PINT implementations, being
developed independently, do not inter-operate. It is a task of the
PINT Working Group to define the inter-networking interfaces that will
support inter-operation of the future implementations of PINT
services.

This document is a product of the PSTN and Internet Internetworking
Working Group of the IETF.
