Title : Applying Loose Routing to Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) User Agents (UA)
Author(s) : J. Rosenberg
Filename : draft-rosenberg-sip-ua-loose-route-02.txt

A key part of the behavior of the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP)
is that SIP proxies rewrite the Request-URI as a request moves
throughout the network. Over the years, experience has shown this to
be problematic. It makes it difficult to use Request URI for service
invocation, complicates emergency services, makes it more complex to
support aliases, and so on. Architecturally, it confounds the
concepts of address and route. This document proposes to change this
through a new mechanism called UA loose routing.

In the body type:

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.
