Hi,

I think it would be good to provide a revision, with the addtional information, 
asap. It will be easier to make a decission whether to move the draft forward, 
and it will hopefully reduce the what-is-this-needed-for type of questions.

Regards,

Christer

Sounds fair, we can provide additional information in a revision (probably when 
the WG decides to pursue this effort?).

Thanks!

Ok, thanks.

I would like the begining of the document (say section 3, or a Scope, 
Applicability statement or similar section) to explains when and why this is 
useful.

The purpose is really for an implementor to be able by reading this section to 
be in a position to determine if it's somthing that should he needs to worry 
about or not. 

So, say if I'm developping a UA for an IMS environment versus an Enteprise SIP 
UA, or an Enteprise SIP access to a service provider network, I'll know if this 
applies to me or not.

Cheers.
