Quite frankly, I doubt it - at least for now. People have not yet 
decided how to secure ENUM and SIP in general from these trust issues, 
and they are being adopted (albeit slowly). More interoperability with 
other systems would be much more usefull at this point.

But, I do think that it will be better in the long run to think about 
these issues. At some point they will require a solution, and if Dundi 
is ahead of the race, so much the better.
