Honestly, reading an RFC is not a simple task, and it's an
especially daunting task when considering the huge number of RFC
that need to be read and understood to even think to start writing a
SIP stack (I mean a professional grade SIP stack, not the toy stacks
that you can download on the Internet).  I do believe that there is
a need for a book that would explain the best practices in writing
such stack.  I wrote multiple SIP stacks, two of them still been
used today in commercial products, and I would really have
appreciated a book like this at the time - if only for the sake of
the other SIP implementers who had to interoperate with my crappy
first implementation.
