Agreed. It was the 'server only' view that needs to be discussed and amended
IMHO.

You have answered the question how this can be done without servers, and
there is more in-depth about serverless telephony in several papers that you
may already know:

http://www1.cs.columbia.edu/~library/TR-repository/reports/reports-2004/cucs
-044-04.pdf  and more at http://www1.cs.columbia.edu/~kns10/publication/

Please don't attribute to me things that I have not said. The issue with
servers is:

>The cost of the servers may be less relevant for a service provider,
>compared to the operational costs for the servers, updates, etc..

For the operational costs you can include the cost of the staff to maintain
the servers, versus a self organizing server cloud.

And if you have a problem with the "purist model" then you would need to
explain why most of the Internet traffic is P2P anyway, as reported in
several places, such as
http://linuxreviews.org/news/2004/11/05_p2p/ and 
http://www.cachelogic.com/research/slide1.php 
"Purists" must be knowing something on how to avoid a costly "service
infrastructure" :-)

Thanks, Henry

I you want in integrated view of all calls and not just the ones for  
which the INVITEs reached a particular device.
For example, I have serial forking which rings my desk phone and only  
if it doesn't answer does it ring my cell phone. I would however,  
like a full view of the call log for my AoR, including those that  
never rang anywhere (were screened, went to call coverage because my  
phone was off or disconnected, were answered on one phone but I'd  
like to have the call record on another phone so I can easily  
originate a call from there, etc., etc., etc., etc., etc.)
> Commercial P2P products (Skype) and P2P SIP have no servers...
Henry, I love you, but that's nonsense. Of course they do, for  
voicemail, skypeout, and likely tons of other things. As with most  
things the purist model of no servers at all is the enemy of the  
sweet-spot model which avoids gratuitous use of servers when they add  
no value, introduce scalability and security problems, and just get  
in the way.

Perhaps a fully-replicated distributed database among the Contacts  
for a particular AOR. Of course even if you have that you need a data  
schema, which is mostly what this draft seems to be about.
