Abortions for some, miniature American flags for others.

Seriously though - is anyone aware of a precis of CALEA? I'm about to install an Asterisk setup into our US office and being a Brit in the UK I'm not totally up on what your Republic overlords are upto.

If you're simply installing asterisk as a pbx in your US office, you probably don't have to do anything (for calea). If you are routing voip calls in a manner more closely resembling the functions of a pstn central office switch where calls through the asterisk system can be to/from anyone (eg, outside your business), then you probably need to keep a close eye on this thread.

As one of the other gentlemen on this list suggested, calls originated from your UK office passing through your US asterisk box to your customers (or potential customers) are not governed by calea laws as the calea function would be implemented by the US telco in this case. The exact same applies in the reverse direction. Regardless of which direction the call is flowing in this case, the telco provides the necessary calea functions.
