Many services that SIP is anticipated to support require the ability
to determine why and how the call arrived at a specific application.
Examples of such services include (but are not limited to) sessions
initiated to call centers via 'click to talk' SIP URLs on a web page,
'call history/logging' style services within intelligent 'call
management' software for SIP UAs and calls to voicemail servers and
call centers. While SIP implicitly provides the redirect/retarget
capabilities that enable calls to be routed to chosen applications,
there is currently no standard mechanism within SIP for communicating
the history of such a request. This 'request history' information
allows the receiving application to determine hints about how and why
the call arrived at the application/user.
This draft discusses the motivations in support of a mechanism for
recording the 'request history', and proposes detailed requirements
for such a generic 'request history' capability.

In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-sipping-req-history-02.txt".
NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
