Oh, for sure. If the technical capabilities don't exist, it'll never happen. If they do, it probably still won't happen, but for other reasons. I was just meaning from the "spending a dime" aspect.

But even where so, you must surely be aware that technical capabilities alone dictate very little in this world. First and foremost are political, economic, bureaucratic, and regulatory considerations. Whether some piece of equipment can technically do something is almost beside the point to the decision-making process in large organisations. — Sent from mobile, apologies for brevity and errors.

I'll bet they get rid of the concepts of ILEC/RBOC and CLEC before we see them step away from T1 trunking. They don't want to sink another penny into their legacy networks and they don't want to run tandems for everyone else. Anything they can do to push you away from connecting to the old stuff they will. -Paul <blockquote> On Dec 5, 2024, at 14:31, Enzo Damato via VoiceOps <[email protected]> wrote: Well, that sucks. Did I miss some VZ news that would have affected this? With Frontier pushing this off however, I wonder which ROBC will be the first to break and offer SIP interconnection. It has to happen at some point, although at this rate, I'm not sure if "sometime this decade" is too much to hope for. -------------------- Enzo Damato On 12/5/24 13:25, Mike Hammett via VoiceOps wrote: <blockquote> This will no longer happen in 2025.
