Indeed, what the majority of VoIP providers do not seem to realize today is that the cost of building the walled garden is exceeding the usefulness of the service provided. I hope the version 1 of today's VoIP service providers will be replaced by a more advanced version 2 who will generate more revenues and attract more customers by doing exactly the opposite. My ENUM and SIP addresses must be public and reachable from the Internet, should I stay in a walled carden I will behave like my neighbour's unfortunate cat, I will look for better food and entertainment at the neighbours.

I think the term has been brought up by Henry Sinnreich. considering the currently many providers provide VoIP services in a walled garden (.e.g. 3GPP, TISPAN NGN, even Skype), but they do not provide you with a public SIP URI, so you cannot be reached (dialed) on the Internet.
So Henry says (and I agree), if you do not have a SIP URI, you do not have VoIP.
And especially on an ENUM related list you may add: if you do not have a SIP URI, you cannot use ENUM as well.
