Hi,

I kind of grew fond of the idea Cullen and I came up with in a private conversation, namely treating telephone numbers as domains similar to when issuing a DNS ENUM query.

In essence, to match +1-232-555-1234, you'd have an identity conditions such as:

<many domain="4.3.2.1.5.5.5.2.3.2.1.e164.arpa" />

Then what do you do with sip:+1-232-555-1234 at foo.com;user=phone ?

I don't think you can convert it to:

   4.3.2.1.5.5.5.2.3.2.1.foo.com

and if you could then it it wouldn't match the e164.arpa form.

This has an interesting additional property of being able to match based on country code, area code, etc. For example, to match all Finnish telephone numbers, you'd have:

<many domain="8.5.3.e164.arpa" />

It only does if you declare that a domain matches anything it is the tail of. You may sometimes want that, but I don't think you do in general.

Not being an expert on ENUM or E.164 in general, I suspect this is horribly broken, but it pleases the aesthethic eye.

Cheers,
Aki

In a side conversation, Hannes suggested a solution to the tel URI problem we discussed during the WG meeting, akin to what's done in the geopriv coordinate system parameter, namely to have a parameter that identifies the scheme, as in

<one scheme="tel" id="+1-212-555-1234"/>

or

<one scheme="sip" id="alice at example.com"/>

if you really only want to match SIP identity sip:alice at example.com.

The default with no scheme parameter is "matches any user at domain scheme".

In order to complete finishing the section of the spec, I'd value quick feedback on the idea.
