Emerging Tech Talk #64: Alan Johnston Explains the IETF’s CUSS Working Group

Tuesday, June 14th, 2011

What is the Call Control UUI Service for SIP (a.k.a. “CUSS”) Working Group within the IETF all about? What is “user-to-user information”(UUI)? Why should you care about it? What would standardizing UUI do for SIP systems?

At the SIPNOC event in April 2011, Voxeo’s Dan York sat down with Alan Johnston, lead author of one of the primary drafts in the CUSS working group, to understand what CUSS is all about, what problems it is aiming to solve, the timeframe it is working on and much more.

More info about CUSS can be found here:

The CUSS working group was formed in September 2010 and participation in the group is open to anyone.
