Andy ponders the consequences of Skype failng the 911/999 duck test.
My take: emergency calling is a property of the LINE and not the SERVICE. It's the ISP who knows where you are. Pick up your Vonage or Skype phone, move next door to show your neighbours how cool it is, and you shouldn't have to reregister your address if your host gets a dicky ticker.
In other words, why not make 10.9.1.1 always route to a SIP server which offers IP emergency calling?
