[Asterisk-biz] h323 is a dying standard?

<my $0.02>

H.323 was Created/Chaired/Dominated by Cisco Systems.
SIP was invented by Telcordia/Others to compete and
take market share away.

Same goes with MGCP (cisco) versus MEGACO (nortel).

The value of the protocol depends on who is selling
what. Nothing more.
