RE: [Sip] about H.323 and SIP

["Naidu, Venkata" <[e-mail]>]

All:

  Sorry to extend the issue again...

  I would suggest interested guys look at unbiased
  comparison of H.323 and SIP at:
  
  http://www.stanford.edu/~chuhee/project/voip/comparison.htm

  As long as there are two, people will never agree 
  on only one. This is definitely not a feature, rather a bug!
