Despite what some marketoids believe there is no
such thing as bis-X compliant SIP implementation. All
the 'bis versions' are iterations of an Internet Draft.
Internet-Drafts are working documents and have
no standards status. To quote RFC 2026:

*   Under no circumstances should an Internet-Draft    *
*   be referenced by any paper, report, or Request-    *
*   for-Proposal, nor should a vendor claim compliance *
*   with an Internet-Draft.                            *

The only issue is whether the wording of whatever text
is in the final version of any bis draft, which goes on to
become a new RFC for SIP, is backwards compatible with
RFC 2543. Given the vague/broken nature of record-routing in
RFC 2543 this is really something of a non-issue.

Cheers,
Neil.
