asterisk users - Mar 2005 - e164.org and FWD now have peering arrangement

There is now a peering arrangement between e164.org and FreeWorldDialup
which means any and all subscribers on FWD are now easily able to make
enum calls by prefixing their call with **164, like wise it's almost as
simple to make a call to FWD by hitting 8829990<fwd number>

This means that for those of you wanting to send/receive calls to/from
FWD subscribers you can now do so, easily and without needing to stay
registered to their servers... Just prefix your caller ID with **164 if
you want to make it easy for people to hit redial...

FYI: FWD shows a different inbound prefix:

      **164 	e164.org 	8781039311

Is there enough spare numbering space there for you to assign e164.org
dialable numbers to people in the asterisk community too?  

While it might be nice for asterisk home users to have their single
DID listed, it strikes me that the real utility would be to have a
blocks of 100 or 1000 numbers assigned to folks, so they could have
each of their voip phones directly dialable from anyone that queries
your db.
