This is sad. Any CISCO people here? please... Anyway, if SIP wouldn't be SOOOOO permissive, if it would be more restrictive, implementations would be easier, more effective and with better performance. But no, instead of that let's allow any kind of symbols, escaping, ridiculous URI headers, painful URI comparissions that NOBODY implements (19.1.4), etc etc... -- Iñaki Baz Castillo [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Sip-implementors mailing list [email protected] https://lists.cs.columbia.edu/cucslists/listinfo/sip-implementors
