I found a document which is about telephone URIs.  The abstract is as
follows:

     This document specifies URL (Uniform Resource Locator) schemes
     'tel', 'fax' and 'modem' for specifying the location of a terminal
     in the phone network and the connection types (modes of operation)
     that can be used to connect to that entity. This specification
     covers voice calls (normal phone calls, answering machines and
     voice messaging systems), facsimile (telefax) calls and data calls,
     both for POTS and digital/mobile subscribers.

The URI for the document is:

 http://www.ics.uci.edu/pub/ietf/uri/draft-antti-telephony-url-12.txt

(I found it on the page:

 http://www.ics.uci.edu/pub/ietf/uri/

)  You should look around the Internet Engineering Task Force's
website <http://www.ietf.org/> for more standards we could use.
Also, look at:
