I like your suggestion Paul on the name below. Good one for 4.2

Just so everyone is clear I just tried this on our live system.  What it
shows in the UI is:
CLID (nob...@ipaddress:15060)  

Where CLID is the caller ID coming from my PRI and IPADDRESS is the
sipXecs conferencing server.

Since we do show the CLID of the caller what is the big problem?

Right, I forgot that it's only the AOR part of the Name (in parentheses)
that's wrong.  The main part of the Name is the Caller ID, which is
what's important.

On a related note, I'd like to propose a new feature.  It would be nice
if a conference administrator could somehow nickname/rename
participants.

Use Case: A new participant enters and via the Conference portal I see
the Name is "6135552834 ([email protected]:15060)".  I then talk to
this new participant and determine it's Hank.  I'd now like to tag this
participant's row in the Conference portal with "Hank".  That will make
it easier to identify Hank later when I want to Isolate/Mute/Disconnect
him.

Any objections or further suggestions to an Enhancement JIRA for this?
