“The VoIP Forum is dedicated to enabling and promoting industry-wide interoperability between products that send⟳ telephony over the Internet and private IP enterprise networks. This interoperability will allow⟳ seamless transmission of Internet phone calls regardless of the telephony application used by callers and call⟳ recipients. At present⟳, applications from different vendors are incompatible due to fundamental differences in voice coding, silence suppression, addressing and dialing plans, call⟳ management and other related functions.”

“VoIP "represents a group of competing companies who've gotten together to agree⟳ on standards," Pulver says. "It's very important," and is good news for users, because their co-operation will move⟳ Internet telephony forward⟳, he says.”
