Hi Paul, According to your response as below. "It is also possible for Alice to use 3pcc O/A techniques to establish a direct *media* path between Bob and Charlie, while Alice remains in the signaling path between them"
While Alice remains in the signaling path means it is some thing like "Conference Call you are talking about" Correct me if i am wrong. Thank you, With Regards Arun A.
