[VoiceOps] Voice Peering

[Alex Balashov]

I think the realistic responses are going to be some combination of:

1) "Congratulations, you just invented Neutral Tandem/Inteliquent/whatever they are this week"

2) "The SIP peering exchange has been proclaimed every year since the early 2000s"

3) "This is quietly happening for years now anyway, just not in the way you've got in mind."
