Which Public Identifiers?
There are the following choices:
E.164 numbers
SIP AoR in the format sip:user@foo.bar
or both (e.g. sip:+43123456@foo.bar)
If it is E.164 numbers only, these E.164 numbers are translated by some magic (e.g. ENUM) to internal identifiers e.g. a SIP AoR to enable routing.
Note: This ENUM cannot be USER ENUM because if the carriers services rely on this mapping, it must be independent from the end-user.
If it is SIP AoRs, an additional question comes up:
is an end-user restricted to public identifiers given out by providers such as richard.stastny@vodafone.de
or is it possible also to "port in” identifiers such as richard@stastny.com?
