This draft is a work item of the Session Initiation Proposal Investigation Working Group of the IETF.
Title : A Framework for Conferencing with the Session Initiation Protocol
Author(s) : J. Rosenberg
Filename : draft-ietf-sipping-conferencing-framework-01.txt
Pages : 45

The Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) supports the initiation,
modification, and termination of media sessions between user agents.
These sessions are managed by SIP dialogs, which represent a SIP
relationship between a pair of user agents. Because dialogs are
between pairs of user agents, SIP's usage for two-party
communications (such as a phone call), is obvious. Communications
sessions with multiple participants, generally known as conferencing,
are more complicated. This document defines a framework for how such
conferencing can occur. This framework describes the overall
architecture, terminology, and protocol components needed for multi-
party conferencing.

In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-sipping-conferencing-framework-01.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.
