yes, they do, massively, assume some sales people, stuffed with a voip 
client on their notebook, connected via VPN to the company, or employees 
working at home, ... In my eyes, this is a rapidly growing group of 
telephone users, which not uses static assigned desktops to notebooks.

Terminal servers are used inhouse, at least what I mean with terminal server 
in the old unix style, e.g. a lot of people connect vi X or NX to a powerful 
station, to work on this one, If they access the groupware, they all come 
from that one IP address. I think this is also not too uncommon usage.

ah, you mean this snippet of code, I found in the STLIDialer.m:

#warning need prefix mapping table here ...
  if ([_number hasPrefix:@"+493916623"])
    _number = [_number substringFromIndex:10];
  else if ([_number hasPrefix:@"+49"]) {
    _number = [_number substringFromIndex:3];
    _number = [@"00" stringByAppendingString:_number];
  }
  else
    _number = nil;

I was already wondering, what this is used for, now I now ;P

I think I need to do, and hopefully find out.

in SkyDialNumber.m the following line appears:
dialer = [[WOApplication application] createCTIDialer];

the method createCTIDialer I found it is implemented in OpenGroupware+CTI.m

but when I then add a NSLog(@"blah whathever"); into the method in 
OpenGroupware+CTI.m I do not see the output on the command line showing up.

I have not found a method implementation anywhere else of it, so I was 
wondering what it is calling there.

I also tried to change the line 
dialer = [[WOApplication application] createCTIDialer];
into 
dialer = [[WOApplication application] XXcreateCTIDialer];
just to see what happens, and I got an runtime exception, does not respond 
to XXcreateCTIDialer.
