Just posted on the IMS Insider blog our ‘hypothesis’ for the IMS Services Forum, which runs in parallel with the Telco 2.0 brainstorm on 4-5 Oct in London.

The hypothesis trys to give some clarity re the purpose/status of IMS in the market, and is designed to provoke strong reactions from the IMS community. We will be discussing ‘antitheses’, and hopefully reaching a ‘synthesis’ at the event.

Summary: focus IMS on supporting better basic voice and messaging services, and forget all the futuristic combinational and ‘multimedia’ stuff.
