Sounds like a good module but the name is not that good. It must be
more specific, "Phone" is too vague and too general.  If there for
example is a name for the API used, that could could be part of the name.

Definitely we need a hierarchical name, right from the beginning.

Telephony::APIname?
Telephony::ProtocolName?
Telephony::ProtocolName::APIname?
Telephony::ProductName?
Telephony::CompanyName?
H323::APIname?
