Hi, If I can suggest an alternative: to make this document obsolete RFC4458 (adding RFC4458 content) with the argument that RFC4458 was informational but because it defined SIP protocol element and procedures, it is obsoleted to align with IETF rules and IANA registration of this parameter with no technical modification. The justification is not really strong but it would correct the current situation.

And by the current SIP rules, I suspect (not sure) that an update to 4458 would also have to be PS. So really not sure how one gets around this not being PS. > > Yours, > Joel > > On 12/15/16 11:51 PM, Ben Campbell wrote: >> >>> On Dec 15, 2016, at 10:35 PM, Joel M.

The fact that 4458 is Informational does not, as far as I can tell, justify continuing the error. While this is for a 3GPP usage, it appears to have been reviewed by the Dispatch WG sufficiently to justify PS. >>> One could argue that there is a down-ref issue, but the fact that >>> the field is in a standards-track required registry would seem to make that a moot point. >>> >> >> Do you think it makes sense to make some new values for “cause” into >> a proposed standard when “cause” itself is informational?
