We have published version 02 of the I-D "Lightweight SIP Toolkit for Peer-to-Peer and Basic Client-Server Systems" for discussion on the list.
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-sinnreich-sip-tools-02.txt This memo discusses the usage scenario of SIP where only the rendezvous and session setup properties of SIP are used and all the applications reside in the endpoints. This is an alternative to the current usage of SIP where the services reside in the network and are supported by various application servers. Such an approach is applicable on the Internet for P2P SIP and also to client-server SIP. PSTN style, ISDN and PBX-like services are not supported. Such an approach reduces the number of required SIP related standards as of early 2008 from roughly 100 to about 11. Successful multimedia IP communications also include the relevant standards proposals for NAT traversal, some of which are not directly related to SIP and also several standards for security. These standards are included in the simple usage scenario for SIP as well. Your comments would be most welcome.
