Yea that's what I was referring to. Say some evil people attacked the server, you could add a few second delay to someone's call setup. I know it's not a major problem but it might just be opening another attack vector. > Once accepted you would just continue to accept the packets. How about > something DNS based?

There's nothing saying we could publish the same data in multiple ways (store it in SQL somewhere and output files to HTTP and generated zone files for bind to pick up).
