There is a fine line here. If the goal is only to support tunneling,
then tunneling the codes from another protocol is fine. But if we are
talking about features that make sense in all-sip networks, all-ISUP
networks, and in interworking cases, then the representation needs to be
provided that makes sense in the all-sip case. AFAIK we have been
dealing with those things on a case-by-case basis. And there are a
variety of ways to code those things. Response codes are one
alternative. Alert-Info URNs would be another way. I think its a
subjective matter of whether the concept being communicated rises to the
level of a response type.
IMO it seems inappropriate to assign a distinct provisional response for
each nuance of user feedback we would like to convey. But I can see how
this can be argued the other way.
Thanks,
