Thanks Gaurav, that's just what I needed. I can pretty much ignore the unreliable one! Some work to do for 100rel but the basic mechanisms are all there so that's not a big job. Cheers Steve

But a session description in a SIP message is not necessarily an offer or an answer. Refer to Section 2.1.2 of draft-ietf-sipping-sip-offeranswer-01 Summarizing:- When the INVITE request does not have an SDP, * The first 1xx-rel MUST contain an SDP as the offer. * The first 1xx (unreliable) MAY/MAY NOT include an SDP but it is not the official offer (if included). It may be used as a preview for the offer that'll subsequently follow. I hope this helps.
