As a reply to the post from November, 29th by anonymous: Only because we do projects with big telco vendors that promote their products and also IMS, it does not mean that as an independent research institute, we don’t take our freedom of an independent opinion. This is actually what is always wanted by our partners and customers. But indeed, there is a lot to argue about IMS, and I believe only the future will show us which party in this discussion succeeds.

Hey, Worked on making a simple SIP User Agent for Android. It is based on the mjsip User Agent and the mjsip stack ported for Android by http://www.hsc.com

I expect to be in a position to say more (in my blog) later in December, but for now let me point out this quote, in the Open Handset Alliance press release here:
http://www.openhandsetalliance.com/press_110507.html
“NMS Communications is pleased to add our industry-leading IMS framework to the Open Handset Alliance initiative. I believe this Alliance will unlock unprecedented innovation in mobile operating systems benefiting operators, consumers and suppliers alike.”

Fraunhofer Institut is hardly the place to go to if you want a neutral view on this (they having funding from companies who promote IMS). IMS is not needed to get a secure connection. It is sad to think that IMS gives you QoS (no matter what hardcore telco vendors tell you) i.e. QoS or lack of it are determined in the transport layer: IMS’s role here is mostly superficial and mostly it is to do with call admission … which can be achieved in other ways. I am not saying that IMS does not have a role to play …. especially if want to spend a lot of money for little return.

Indeed, with new operating system(s) emerging, operators should really think about what role they want to play in the (web) services domain and provide interesting enablers to the applications community that are already linked to the operating systems for better performance etc.
