But as I've mentioned before, this isn't the whole story.  There are other 
repeatable scenarios that still cause problems, and to which some large 
progressive providers also see as an issue and won't accept termination becuase 
of it:

GW <- SIP -> * <- IAX2 -> * <- SIP -> 79X0

Now, if this scenario has been corrected as well, please accept my apologies 
for bringing it up.

This config, with the absolute latest CVS HEAD, well as of a week or so ago 
when I last checked, seems to cause issues on the sequencing.  

I seem to recall comments that there is some work still being done on getting 
this cross protocol packet sequencing to work properly?  I'll have to get 
Ethereal out again and prove that it is still happening.

And why are we blaming Cisco for dropping packets that are mis-sequenced, when 
we shouldn't be sending them mis-sequenced packets in the first place?
