I am very happy to see some work in this area - thanks.

Given a call-id does not specify a dialog, I don't think it is a good map to
a diameter session-id. It should at least include the to and from tags.

I think a better solution would involve a network generated billing id. (ala
DCS)

Accounting-Input/Output-Octets/Packets serves no purpose I can imagine.

I think it would be good to look at the things people are currently
collecting from SIP and H.323 calls in billing system. Figure out what they
want to accomplish with this information then figure out a good way to do
that.

If you are defining some AVP, you might want to make the media ones specific
to RTP instead of SIP so they can be used by H.323/MGCP/H.248.

I'd give some thought to what you would need to bill for a call that got
transferred and what is needed for a conference call.

Hope that helps,

Cullen
