| Distributed Universal Number Directory (DUNDi) (tm)
 | |

| 
 | |
| DUNDi is essentially a trusted, peer-to-peer system for being able to
 | |
| call any phone number from the Internet.  DUNDi works by creating a
 | |
| network of nodes called the "DUNDi E.164 Trust Group" which are bound by
 | |
| a common peering agreement known as the General Peering Agreement or
 | |
| GPA.  The GPA legally binds the members of the Trust Group to provide
 | |
| good-faith accurate information to the other nodes on the network, and
 | |
| provides standards by which the community can insure the integrity of
 | |
| the information on the nodes themselves.  Unlike ENUM or similar
 | |
| systems, DUNDi is explicitly designed to preclude any necessity for a
 | |
| single centralized system which could be a source of fees, regulation,
 | |
| etc.
 | |
| 
 | |
| You can find the PEERING agreement in the doc directory.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Much less dramatically, DUNDi can also be used within a private
 | |
| enterprise to share a dialplan efficiently between multiple nodes,
 | |
| without incuring a risk of a single point of failure.  In this way,
 | |
| administrators can locally add extensions which become immediately
 | |
| available to the other nodes in the system.
