The idea would be to have a unified locator of some sort that isn't SIP
that could be numeric if you're talking VoIP over 44net. Plus I personally
think callsign(a)callsign.ampr.org should simply be sip://callsign@ampr.org.
Could require a global registration/location server but that's just DB
work.
