Peer-to-peer SIP dialing

Not sure about the method. But a developer called Barret Lyon has found a way to launch P2P SIP URI dialing with Asterisk based PBX systems.
For the record, Asterisk is a complete PBX in software. It runs on Linux, BSD and MacOSX and provides the usual features of a PBX. Asterisk enables VoIP telephony in many protocols, and can interoperate with almost all standards-based telephony equipment using relatively inexpensive hardware.
“Dialing with SIP URI completely avoids toll calling and forces your Asterisk server to create P2P sip connections when you dial someone’s SIP URI. It makes a less complex phone call without a system administrator configuring a peer and best of all: It gets rid of phone numbers and your telco!”
During Lyon’s video recorded “lecture”, the method was described as easy as email forwarding. Any thoughts?
