Joking aside, that is exactly the page I was looking at when the email
came in!

Now you know of one person looking into it at the moment; although like
yourself I am totally new to this.  It's *supposed* to be simple, easy,
etc; but I feel confident I'll feel dumber than when I'm started.

(at the moment - if Hobbit doesn't monitor it, we don't deploy it; and
we haven't had to say "No" yet; so I think your pretty close to your
ambitions!!)

Cheers.

Not that I know of.

It's a technology that I know absolutely nothing about - what protocols
are involved, how you communicate with the devices, what needs to 
be up and running, how you monitor availability etc. 

This looks like a good place to start:
http://www.voip-info.org/tiki-index.php?page=voip-info.org
I haven't seen it mentioned yet, and it's something I will need to
consider in the not too distant future (as I'm sure many others will
too)!
 
I expect to get a call about it one day, so I am hoping Hobbit will
have
a place monitoring this too.
The ambition (for me) certainly is to have Hobbit be able to monitor
all of your IT systems. Yeah, I know that's pretty ambitious, but it
never hurts to set high goals :-)
