Hi Mary,
 
A couple of question:
 
1. Does the 4244bis definition of "retarget" cover the freephone case,
when the R-URI is replaced with the AoR of B - not with the contact of B
- no matter whether it's done based on location service, configuration
or whatever?
[MB] That was the intention, however, the current text needs to be made
more general (i.e., I was using location service to mean more than
registration based contacts - another thing that's not quite so clear in
3261). [/MB]
 
2. Related to the first question, when you say "...and thus chaning the
target of the request", what is the defintion of "target"?
[MB] The definition of target matches that used in section 16.5 of 3261.
A target is an entry in the target list, which is populated using
information from a location service, configuration, etc. I can clarify
that as well and as you previously suggested make a more comprehensive
glossary in the more conventional format - e.g., "Target: definition
text, blah, blah, blah...] So, I believe it is the same use of target as
in the target-uri draft. [/MB]
 
Regards,
 
Christer

When I use "retarget" I am using the definition that I put into 4244bis.
So, if you could ignore the tag or change it to 'iscontact' or whatever,
what would you change in that definition? Also, consider that if you
were to change everyplace that I use
"retarget"/"retargeted"/"retargeting" in 4244bis with 'iscontact' the
text would not make sense. So, even if we change the name of the tag, we
still need to understand the concept or define another term that means
that the request-uri in the incoming request (which should be the same
as the last hi-entry in the request) is being chnaged due to service
lookup, configuration, blah, blah, blah and that to meet the
requirements in the target-uri document, we want to tag this entry so
that this request-uri is not "lost" - i.e., this is the one the services
identified in the target-uri document care about. 
 
So, right now, here's what's in 4244bis:
 
   The term "retarget" is used in this document to refer to the process
   of a Proxy Server/User Agent Client (UAC) changing a Uniform Resource
   Identifier (URI) in a request based on a lookup in a location service
   and thus changing the target of the request.
 
We have previously discussed that we do need to expand the "based on a
lookup in a location service" to include configuration, etc., so let's
not debate that. 
 
But, what explicitly is the concern with that definition?
 
Mary.

I'm fine with discussing implementation if everyone is meaning the same
if they use the same words.

As  to the "retarget" term such does not seem to be the case.
