SIP Witch Domain Calling for Lucid
GNU SIP Witch has become a strategic part of a public FSF initiative to replace Skype, and will do so by operating the SIP protocol in a manner analogous to what sendmail does for SMTP to allow anyone to connect to both local SIP user agents and devices managed as local extensions, and remote users through SIP URI's over the public Internet thereby enabling users to construct public and private calling networks from the bottom-up without need of a mitigating service provider. Because SIP Witch does no media processing and supports direct peer to peer interconnect, true secure protocols such as ZRTP may be used in conjunction to offer Internet scalable secure VoIP & video services without the need for a central directory or service provider (such as Skype requires).
