L3 pulls out of VoIP petition
I suppose it should not come as a surprise that L3 pulled out at the last minute, of which would have required a mandatory decision by the FCC on March 22 on VoIP fees.
VON's favorite son and strongest advocate Michael Powell - has left the building! With Powell in place, there was much hope that the former Chairman would pull off another VoIP favor, but that was not going to happen. In Powell's last public keynote speech at the VON Spring 2005 conference, he made it clear things were not going to be as easy as they have been in getting VoIP all they ask for.
VON coalition founder Jeff Pulver had this to say about L3's 11th-hour pull out on his blog posting.
