SIP is attracting more and more attention as a valuable tool to
enable and support voice and multimedia communications over the
Internet. However, a significant number of potential customers
for SIP-based services are for various reasons unable to, or
choose not to, use voice communication technologies. This document
offers a proposed set of requirements and identifies some of the
key issues that need resolution to allow full accessibility for
this group to SIP-based Internet communications. This document is
intended to continue the discussion begun in a previous draft (see
Acknowledgements) and to lay a foundation for design and
implementation discussions in future drafts.

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
