["Elwell, John" <[e-mail]>]

Sorry for the delay, but my incoming email seemed to be delayed last night,
so I have a huge backlog this evening. See in-line.

[JRE] My expectations seem to differ somewhat from my co-author's, but I
think both are accommodated by the draft. I would like to be able to supply
service retargeting information to any UAS user or application I choose, in
order to advise them what happened to the call before it reached them,
rather than having to supply information to suit a particular application
that I am retargeting to. For example, suppose I forward my calls or some of
my calls on busy to a deputy (e.g., assistant, member of staff, colleague,
secretary, application). I just wish to say that this call was service
retargeted from me to him/her because of busy. That user or application can
do what it wants with that information. For example, a VM might use it to
get to the right mailbox and choose the right greeting. A simple telephone
might just display something appropriate in the local language.
