MNP only apply to mobile operators, local operators will still using TDM/SS7 and nowhere plan to junk their stuff. That's probably because our FSB didn't come up with new wiretapping technology for SIP/IMS yet. So they still need TDM to wiretap calls.

They have a lot of experience are really good at analyzing Call Details Records as well. :-) SIP/IMS and public key, can you point me to draft/rfc? [RS> ] The SIP/IMS interconnection issue is part of the regulators push for a PSTN Transition to all IP infrastructure. The big carriers want it as well... well get out from under the regulator first but there is a real issue in that the old TDM gear needs to be replaced and is simply too expensive to continue to operate and the SIP gear is cheaper. http://www.telecompetitor.com/pstn-phase-out-debate-continues-at-fcc/ http://www.fiercewireless.com/tech/story/t-wants-fccs-blessing-shut-down-pst n/2010-01-03 The problem is that the half transition is now causing huge leakage in the system that is creating huge criminal fraud. https://datatracker.ietf.org/wg/stir/charter/ The consensus opinion is the adapt DKIM to phone numbers. http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6376 In any event all of this requires restructuring the numbering databases and that eventually ends up with ENUM somewhere in the picture. http://apps.fcc.gov/ecfs/document/view?id=7520931878
