I just called his office to sign up for the conference and I asked his secretary if there was going to be any mention of DGIV. She put me on hold, asked him, and got back on the phone with me and said this: ' there was no plan to discuss Digicom and it will not be specifically mentioned unless someone has specific questions about it' I then asked her if Mr. Pulver has heard of Digicom and she replied 'from speaking to him, I don't think so' Thus, I concluded (maybe prematurely) that he has not heard of it and even if he had, DGIV was surely not occupying a significant component of his brain cells......

My first post... Jeff Pulver is definitely the GURU of the field, with major interests in regulatory issues and technical (standards,quality, interoperability). Does not surprise me he has not heard of DGIV. At the April Conf. in San Jose,Ca (his bigger conf. ever), he made an informal survey in one of the plenary sessions to figure out where people where coming from. Lotsa people from equipt makers, established telcos, ISP's, industry analysts,.. Believe it or not, I _think_ over 70 people said they were from VoIP startups, ISPs, already providing/considering limited VoIP traffic. that's a hell of a lot! ---> no way Jeff can know all of them, esp those who don't carry a lot of traffic yet. Of course, the ones that already carry traffic got even more exposure than they now have. DeltaThree, IDT, ITXC, Ozemail (Australia), Poptel (Germany), Glocalnet,... were all there. (BTW, DGIV was not on the official list of participants.. somehow surprised me..whereas some other phone companies -the less promising ones ! often hyped on SI- were..). Jeff had a special session on: VoIP: reports from the field. a panel of VoIP companies that were reporting on their operations: problems, hopes, volumes, technical issues... I was sitting behind a gentleman from Goldman Sachs, who was fiercely scribbling on his notepad everything he was hearing. Now this: Got an email from Pulver.com yesterday. They are still looking for speakers for the Fall conference in DC. (the one is Stockholm is already full). Deadline for application is May22. How about asking somebody from Digitcom to present something there (reports from the field)... and let DGIV get in touch with them. Pulver couldn't care less about investors. He realized 5 years ago that this domain was going to explode, and is interested in developping the field, not in specific companies. His conf. is not a trade show (even though...it could look like it at times): it is primarily a place for people from the industry to exchange information. Then again, it could also be a place for DGIV to get some exposure... and differenciate ourselves from the other ones!! Just my opinion of course. Hope it helps, JP C -in DGIV since $0.33 ------------------- PULVER has not heard about DGIV? EXPLAIN THIS!
