[reSIProcate] hunt group using b2bua
Some members of my team are giving me an indication that the b2bua
portion of resiprocate is not in active development. Specifically we
were looking at it to build a hunt group feature. Currently we've
implemented hunt groups w/o a b2bua using sipXecs SIP tack but once
the number of members hit's a 5 or 6 the amount of SIP traffic that is
generate back to the caller is too much. I don't think this is
limitation of the sipXecs SIP stack so much as it's a limitation of
SIP in this area. I'm not a SIP expert but I can gather more details
if nec. Our idea was that implementing this as a B2BUA would relieve
the work from the client and allow the feature to scale.
So my questions to group are:
1. can large hunt groups be implemented w/o B2BUA
2. is this a fair assessment of b2bua module in resip?
3. folks that use resip use something else when they need b2bua?
4. does the b2bua module just need the right project to improve it?
5. Would more people use the b2bua module if it was improved? If so,
please respond w/details on/off list so we can have confidence we
wouldn't be owning this module alone.
