Wow – there is an intense lobbying by VRS providers and Number
Service companies to the FCC that their “proposals” are best.

Interesting point by NeuStar that “path” of the video phone
distributed video relay service will go thru even if another VRS
provider is chosen as a default is seen as a virtue; that is, has
added benefits if this is done. NeuStar and HOVRS/GA proposals meet
that.

This is an interesting powerpoint comparison.

Makes case for NeuStar and HOVRS/GA Proposals focusing on ATIS
recommendations.
Long List of Comments – Link:
http://www.fcc.gov/cgb/ecfs/
For those who want to read long list of comments, go to this website,
on right column click to “search for filed comment” #1 type “03-123”
and on #7 type dates from “03/01/2008” and type to “06/08/2008” and
you will get a long list of comments from various individuals,
companies, etc.
If you are curious which proposals I support. What I look for is what
is best for consumer; by that, I mean consumers should be able to have
all the features of telephone system like video mail, caller id, etc.,
and after that I look for what is most seamless, least infrastructure
changes, and minimum federal regulations added. My vote would go to
NeuStar and HOVRS/GA proposals. On the paper, CSDVRS’s ONS proposal
looks good, but in practice requires lot of changes – substantive
changes would be needed for VRS providers and the FCC would have to
create new regulations. In addition, I would want a system that will
flow with the emerging future technologies, NeuStar best meets that
need and so does HOVRS/GA.
NeuStar proposals emulate VoIP system which is carrier-based,
HOVRS/GA very similar except that one central number database service
(in this case, they used DASH as an example), and ONS starts from
scratch – actually the 800 number that CSDVRS give to VRS users is
based on ONS technology.
Also, we would want majority of VRS providers and other number
database service companies willing to cooperate, and that seems to be
either NeuStar and HOVRS/GA.
eyes open & thumbs up,
