I get the impression here that Paul thinks there is some ordering in the
queue.

There is no requirement that this is so. While it may make sense that
oldest entries are processed first, the normal PSTN/ISDN service
requirements are only about completing calls between two available
parties. 

So in summary, I consider it incorrect to talk about the top of the
queue, or next entry in the queue. Entries in the queue may be selected
and processed by any algorithm that makes sense to the operator /
implementor.

Keith
