[OpenSER-Users] t_on_branch -- using drop() question?

[Andreas Granig]

Hi,

There was a discussion about relaying to yourself vs. recursive loops 
through routes:

http://openser.org/pipermail/users/2007-July/012042.html

In the sipwise config, heavy sip-uri manipulation is done after 
appending a branch (which is necessary after failure-route), so I append 
a branch, manipulate the r-uri, append another branch with the final 
r-uri and on relay drop the unneeded one.

I guess we'll discuss some best-practices in Rome in September to 
optimize it a bit, right, Bogdan? ;o)
