Bogdan, can you give us more details of your plans?
We have to decide how to deal with the problem of killing a call in
progress and detect an hunged-up call.
I'd like to avoid the use of a B2BUA, so I'd like to know if, when and
how you plan to obtain this. I really cannot understand how you will
achieve this simply with a SER module. You need some way to store all
the data of dialogs in progress... Don't you?
Thanks.

Hi Greg,
keeping the call control on your hands is an vital need...With the
tomorrow release I prepared the first steps for a light dialog support
based on Routing mechanism - complete FROM changing and restoring for
the whole dialog was the prove of concept :).
By being able to control the call from somewhere in the middle, I target
especially issue no 2 and why not 4 and 5.
....and all this by avoiding the B2BUA.......
regards,
bogdan
