| Microsoft has no current plans push this specification through a
| standards body, as its technologies are "all based on SIP (Session
| Initiation Protocol) already," according to Kapner.

| Commission around the availability (or lack thereof) of its
| Windows communications protocols, I wonder if its move to release
| the OCS 2007 specs is driven as much by a desire to be a bigger
| player in the software-PBX market as it is by hopes of heading
| off more potential lawsuits.
