That's not possible with H.323 due to the nature of a gatekeeper. In
H.323, your gatekeeper controls outgoing calls, in SIP, it is not the
case. Are you sure you can register to several gatekeepers at the same
time with SJPhone?

Having the possibility to register different user/password on different
SIP registrars and perahps also outbound proxies seems perhaps a bit
"unusable" to me.

Anyway, we will see, but not having that feature in 2.00 doesn't mean it
won't be in 2.2 even though I suspect the HIG usability people would
scream at me. 

I'll talk about this with Craig and Robert,
