Skype and P2P SIP 

Prof. Henning Schulzrinne et al. from Columbia University published recently two interesting papers. One paper "An Analysis of the Skype Peer-to-Peer Internet Telephony
Protocol"
is trying to re-engineer Skype and is giving some insights to the inner working of Skype.

The second paper "Peer-to-Peer Internet Telephony using SIP" is proposing a way to implement SIP as P2P protocol. The most interesting point IMHO is the possibility for a client to register with a normal SIP-proxy ond at the same time to participate in a P2P network.
