Dear Mme Lapierre,

I find it a little confusing that your email says that standards
makers will present what the signalling of VoIP will look like,
and that your agenda refers to the session as an H.323/IP workshop,
yet none of the scheduled talks seem to talk about H.323.  Rather
there seems to be a focus on the gateway control protocols (SGCP
and IPDC) which as you know, are being pushed by some parties as
replacements for H.323.  Can you clear up my confusion?

Regards,

Dave Walker
