It only applies to 'peer' entries, but the important point is that 
'peer' entries _are_ allowed to place calls through Asterisk, not just 
receive them. That applies to both 1.0.x and CVS HEAD. In CVS HEAD 
_every_ config option allowed on a 'user' entry is also supported on a 
'peer', although that's not the case in 1.0.x (and won't be changed 
there, for obvious reasons). Realistically, this means that 'type=user' 
and 'type=friend' are of little value any more in CVS HEAD, except for 
some unusual cases.

(All of this is relative to chan_sip, only, of course you already know 
that but I want to ensure the mailing list archive has the proper 
context <G>)
