[Ecrit] emergency call termination

[<g.caron at bell.ca>]

Dear ECRIT,

NENA wishes to provide comments regarding "emergency call termination"
behavior in -framework-05 and -phonebcp-04.

The UA behavior currently defined disallows a UA engaged in an emergency
communication to release the call and states that only the PSAP should
be able to terminate an emergency call.

NENA wishes to express that this behavior, while desired or mandated in
certain jurisdictions, is undesirable in others. For example, the
majority of the U.S. jurisdictions do not use this feature and prefer to
allow the caller to release an emergency call. 

It is not NENA's intent to revert the current behavior in such a way
that the caller has always the ability to release an emergency call.
NENA would like however that this feature be made optional and
controlled at the PSAP end. This would allow a roaming device to adjust
its behavior according to the rules of the jurisdiction it is currently
in.

Thanks,


Guy Caron
On behalf of NENA
