The IESG has approved publication of the Internet-Draft 'A Session
Initiation Protocol (SIP) Event Package for Registrations'
<draft-ietf-sipping-reg-event-00.txt> as a Proposed Standard. This
document is the product of the Session Initiation Proposal
Investigation Working Group.
The IESG contact persons are Allison Mankin and Scott Bradner.
Technical Summary
This document defines a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) event
package for registrations. Through its REGISTER method, SIP
allows a user agent to create, modify, and delete registrations.
Registrations can also be altered by administrators in order to
enforce policy. As a result, these registrations represent a
piece of state in the network that can change dynamically. There
are many cases where a user agent would like to be notified of
changes in this state. This event package defines a mechanism by
which those user agents can request and obtain such
notifications. The mechanism has many practical uses and security
considerations have been worked out with some care.
Working Group Summary
This specification had good consensus after this generalization
of the original individual submission.
Protocol Quality
The specification was reviewed for the IESG by Allison Mankin.
