 My sincere apology for this belated update of the charter.

 I have tried to reflect all the comments that were addressed
at the IETF 68.

 The charter is available at http://www.bliss-ietf.org/charter.txt
 The diff is available at http://www.bliss-ietf.org/diff3.html

 Some outstanding issues that I am aware of are:

  1. Terms to be used.
   - Service/Feature are both overloaded, I have used feature for
     now. I would very much appreciate suggestions.

  2. Name of the deliverables.
   - Current division/naming of deliverables may be too specific to a
     particular call feature, and it may take us down the path
     of never-ending flood of work. I see value in continuing the
     work if there are really a needs. But what I want to avoid is
     to have to work on a new task just to accommodate small variation
     that could have been resolved if previous effort was general enough.

   - For example, pick up/park and BLA may share a lot of similarities
     as we analyze these features, and may be sensible to consolidate them
     in one deliverable. But we probably do not realize this until we
     do enough of the analysis. Now, spending extensive time trying to find
     commonalities among features that are having interoperability issues
     in the wild, simply to come up with a right name for the 
deliverable does
     not make sense to me.
      I personally see value and propose to focus on one specific 
feature at
     time as it has been stated in the charter, and consolidate the mile 
stones,
     when we see the true value in doing so.
 
  3. How to progress the work.
    - The mandate of this work group is to facilitate effective feature
     interoperability for those features that are seeing 
interoperability issues
     in the wild. More information on variable implementations the 
better, yet
     overloading the work group with drafts sharing similar 
name(abc-mla-01, abc-sla-00,
     bbc-bla-02, bbs-bla-00 etc.), similar reqs, security considerations 
and
     small differences is probably not something we want.

    - To deal with this dilemma, it may be wise and appropriate to form 
a design
     team per milestone.  

 Regards
  Shida

(Not sure if this should be to BLISS or SIPPING - let's try BLISS)

Throughout the example messages, in the dialog event package XML, the
parameters 'appearance' and '+sip.rendering' are given in the form:

    <param pname=3D"appearance" pvalue=3D"0"/>
    <param pname=3D"+sip.rendering" pvalue=3D"yes"/>

The use of 'pvalue' is incorrect, as it conflicts with the schema in RFC
4235.  The correct attribute name is 'pval'.  The interesting bit of the
schema is (from pg 21):

    <xs:element name=3D"param" minOccurs=3D"0"
      maxOccurs=3D"unbounded">
      <xs:complexType>
        <xs:attribute name=3D"pname" type=3D"xs:string"
          use=3D"required"/>
        <xs:attribute name=3D"pval" type=3D"xs:string"
          use=3D"required"/>
      </xs:complexType>
    </xs:element>

Whilst relatively minor, it may cause some interesting interoperability
problems when changing it to be correct...

Regards,

Michael

 I haven't received any comments on the revised charter.
So I will try again.. Below is the revised charter reflecting
comments received at IETF 68.


*******************************************************************
BLISS CHARTER
*******************************************************************

-- General Information ------------------

 WG Name : Basic Level of Interoperability for SIP features (BLISS)
 Chairs : Jason Fischl, Shida Schubert
 RAI Area Director(s) : Cullen Jennings and Jon Peterson
 RAI Area Advisor : Cullen Jennings



-- Description of the working group -----

The mandate of this working group is to facilitate effective feature
interoperability utilizing SIP in heterogeneous network environments
as noted below.

SIP's approach to supporting more advanced features and applications
has been to specify a number of primitive operations, including refer,
dialog replacement and joining, and event packages, and then to allow
those primitives to be combined in many ways to realize different
features. This approach avoids the need for standardized definitions of
 a feature, which can severely limit innovation and broad applicability.

While this approach brings great flexibility and generality, it
complicates interoperability. Without any kind of standardized definition
of a particular feature, each implementation creates its own definition
and corresponding set of call flows and primitives used to realize this
feature. In practice, this has resulted in a poor track record for
interoperability, especially for features which make assumptions on
supported SIP extensions and behaviors from other elements.

The problem is exacerbated by the desire for these features to work
across many types of SIP endpoints, including SIP hardphones, softphones,
 and gateways to the PSTN and other VoIP networks including non centralized
environment, and for the desire to work across domain boundaries and to
interwork with the PSTN, when applicable.

The focus will not be on rigorous definition of what the specific feature
is and exactly how it works. Rather, the focus will be on documenting the
variations that exist in the wild that causes interoperability problems,
figure out a minimum baseline requirement for a UA and servers(minimum set
of primitives etc.), defining minimum levels of functionality required to
realize a broad class of related features, and on interoperating with other
elements which might implement one of those features in different ways.

The BLISS working group will coordinate closely with the SIP and SIPPING
working groups. Like SIPPING, its role is to focus on applications of the
 SIP protocol and not on core extensions to SIP itself. The difference
between SIPPING and BLISS, is that BLISS is focused on a particular type
of SIP application - call features, and in particular, advanced call
features requiring non-trivial call control. SIP applications such as
configuration, presence, SIP extensions for IM, and session policy are
clearly out of scope for BLISS and remain the sole province of SIPPING.
Of course, any features considered by BLISS will support the full range of
multimedia supported by SIP - audio, video, text, messaging, and so on.

The BLISS working group will focus on resolving interpretability issues
on four features as an initial milestone. Summary for each of the features
are as follows.

 On top of these features, a document describing the problem this working
group is trying to address, criteria to be met for items to be accepted and
template for documenting a draft for this working group will be documented
as a "Problem Statement" chartered to be the first deliverable of this
working group.


Bridged/Shared Line Appearance (BLA/SLA)   


Description: feature that allows two or more SIP address to be shared
by multiple devices and allow each device to monitor the shared line
status usage.

Usage: The feature is generally used by administrative assistants
 taking a calls for an executive. The administrative assistants with
 this feature is able to pick up the call for the executive which they
 share the line with and monitor the busy status of the executive's
 device on the shared line.   

Issue: This feature is implemented by various vendors and generally does
not inter-work among devices developed by different vendors.



Call Park/Pickup

Description: feature that allows a person to put a call on hold at one
device and continue the conversation from any other device set.   

Usage: The feature allows the user to move within an office and pick up
 a call on hold without the knowledge of the phone to be used in the
 destination office. It also allows the callee to put the caller on hold
 when the desired called party is not at the extension

Issue: This feature is implemented by various vendors and generally does
 not inter-work among devices developed by different vendors.   



Do Not Disturb (DND)

Description: feature that allows a callee to trigger a feature to
 ignore/reject/decline any incoming call.   

Usage: Allows the callee to set up a feature so the phone doesn't
 interfere with the user by means such as muting the phone, forwarding
 to voice-mail etc.

Issue: The feature itself has different ways to deal with the user's
requirement "Do not disturb". Some implementation simply mutes the phone
and forward the call to voicemail, some returns a busy signal when DND
is set etc. Due to the fact that implementation may have different
interpretations of what "Do not disturb" is supposed to trigger,
interoperability depends not only on how a feature may be implemented but
what feature is supposed to be triggered as well. 



Call Completion to Busy Signal/Call Completion on NO Reply (CCBS/CCNR)   

Description: Allows callers to recognize unavailable (busy, call waiting)
 or unreachable (device turned off, out of feature area) parties when the
 target (callee) becomes available/ reachable. It gives the caller the
 option of receiving a notification when desired callee is available.   

Usage: Allows a caller to be alerted when an unavailable/unreachable
 callee becomes available. Customer feature center that receives large
 volume of calls that need to put users in a queue, some commercial
 stores wanting to provide good customer experience generally have
 similar features installed.

Issue: Interest in this feature has been increasing and various approaches
to satisfy the requirement have been discussed with several variations of
implementations in the wild with potential interoperability issues.



-- Guiding principles for this working group work will include ----

- Identify feature interoperability issues, based on an analysis of
  specific features within heterogeneous network(s). Provide a clear
  description of any interoperability problems that are identified
  by documenting the variations that exist in the wild for features
  that is already implemented.

- Document minimum baseline requirements relevant to the specific feature
  for addressing the interoperability issue.
    Criteria to consider:   
    * who is responsible for invoking a feature?
    * who is responsible for implementing a feature?   
    * how does the feature interact with multiple media types?
    * how does the feature work between administrative domains?

- Initiate analysis of the pros and cons of key approaches to addressing
  the requirements.

- Where the requirements can be satisfied within the capabilities of the
  current standards, produce BCPs [and appropriate call-flows] to document
  the best approach.

- Where normal event packages or SIP uri parameter is all what's needed to
  prevent interoperability issues, appropriate extensions and its usage
  would be defined and documented.

- Where extensions to standards are required beyond what's mentioned above,
  bring the analysis, requirements and need for new extensions to the
  appropriate working group (SIP, SIPPING or SIMPLE).

- As in the SIPPING charter, the security of all the deliverables will 
be of
  special importance.

 *Deliverable may attempt to...
  1. Define a single approach to solve the problem.
  2. Allow variations but mandate support for more than one mechanism.
  3. Demonstrate that interoperability is possible even when entities
     provide feature differently.

Hi Shida,=20

I was wondering about the relationship between the BLISS WG and the work
being done in SIP Forum's SIPConnect initiative. The goal of their doc
was to define a core set of RFCs for service-provider to enterprise SIP
connectivity.=20

Do you see this as being "in scope" for BLISS?

I am trying to write some basic interop scenarios for testing at some
future SIPIT and trying to decide if this was of interest to BLISS and
regarded as in/out of scope.=20

Without knowing all the historical details - it seems to me (perhaps
naively) that a basic level of interop with SIP-PSTN providers would be
a useful addition to BLISS.

Cheers,=20

Peter Musgrave

Peter;

 SP to Enterprise interconnectivity in a way SIPConnect defines it, I 
strongly
believe is not within the scope of BLISS.

 If SP is providing the feature mentioned as a milestone in the charter and
interoperability is desired, then SP providing the service is likely to 
have to
implement whatever minimum requirements found necessary to obtain
interoperability. If that affects the core set of RFCs listed in SIPConnect
so be it.

 As for your last comment about SIP-PSTN interop, if you are talking
about basic interoperability(peering), not that of a specific feature it is
not in scope of BLISS. If it's of a specific feature, interaction of a 
feature
with the PSTN-GW to accomplish ineterwoking will be considered, and
I believe that is as far as we will go.

 I hope, I answered your question.

 Regards
  Shida

I agree with Shida here. Our objectives don't include 'SP to enterprise 
interconnect', but rather, an examination of various features or feature 
bundles to make sure we get a minimal set of interoperability guidelines 
specified. If SIPconnect or some other org wants to point to such a 
document and say that this is required for a certain use case, then great.

Dear all,
We had discussions about CCBS since 2 Years (see =
draft-jesske-sipping-tispan-requirements) within IETF. I confused about =
the timing of CCBS for next year. We see a much higher priority for this =
issue. Latest end of this year.

Best Regards

Roland

Shida,

Here is a point one of my associates identified:

He felt the term "Park/Pickup" was confusing because there is a 
different feature that is often described using the term "Pickup". So he 
wanted the to use a different term here, such as "Park/Park-Retrieval".

I'm not especially hung up about this as long as everyone knows what we 
mean, and the full description that comes with the term makes that clear.

But I think it does raise the question of whether the *other* Pickup 
feature should be on the table as well. He stated this as: "Pickup 
pertains to what may actually be a group of calls across several
phones, in the ringing state, arbitrarily selecting one of the calls,
and moving it to a specific phone."

One of the things we need to have some discussion on, which came up 
during the BoF, is how to scope and define our work in such a way that 
it achieves the following two objectives:

1. makes it clear that, if you are interested in implementing feature X, 
then this is a document containing a set of recommendations you need to 
follow so that you are interoperable for feature X, even including 
diversity in implementation and functionality

2. avoids producing a never-ending series of documents, one for every 
feature and variant out there, producing the SIP equivalent of H.450.X 
and realizing the thing sipping-16 warns against (except it would be 
sipping-3 corresponding to our three documents).

I think you can, in fact, simultaneously achieve these objectives.

The idea is, that there are many aspects of various features that aren't 
sources of interop problems. For example, in the DND case, it really 
doesn't matter whether the call gets forwarded to voicemail, or to an 
IVR, or rejected, when DND is enabled. The interop problem is agreeing 
on how to signal that DND Is required and who implements it. Thus, the 
"DND" problem really covers a bunch of different features which all 
share this common interop problem.

So, I'd suggest that what we are really targeting here are 'functional 
primitives', each of which cover a core capability that is required by 
many features that depend on it. So, we have here three functional 
primitives in our charter:

* "line sharing" - this covers the functionality required for multiple 
UA instances to be able to see and utilize sessions made to/from either 
one. It covers a range of features including:

   *  multiple call appearances
   *  call suspend/resume
   *  retrieve
   *  conference across appearances

* "parking" - this covers functionality required to move calls from one 
instance to another without pre-arranged knowledge of the set of 
instances on which the call is to be shared. Basically a dynamic version 
of line sharing in a sense. It would cover features includign:

   * park
   * parked retrieval
   * directed park
   * directed pickup

and so on

* "automated handling" - this covers functionality required for a user 
to indicate, asynchronously from the time of a call, what the handling 
of a future call should be. It covers the rules on who implements the 
processing and how it is signaled. Covers features including:

   * DND
   * CFU
   * CFNA
   * etc


Indeed, in the 'DND' case, I think its interesting and important to note 
that I believe that the problem covers the various call forwarding and 
call blocking cases too. This really indicates that there is, in fact, a 
common functional primitive that is going to help address a larger 
number of actual features.

I'd suggest that, the *final* deliverable for each of these have a title 
which states the functional primitive, and the abstract describe the 
primitive and enumerate a bunch of features which, if you want to be 
interoperable for, require you to implementthis functional primitive. 
This way, it is clear to marketing folks and product managers that if 
they want the phone to do feature X, this is the spec they need to point 
to, and the phone or other box has to do everything in there.

This structure also sends the clear message that this is not the 
sipping-16 since each document itself allows many features which share 
the same common primitive, including ones we may not have thought of yet.

As part of the development of these final products, I think it would be 
enormously useful to have intermediate drafts which just capture call 
flows for what people do today for the various features within the 
functional primitive. So, we'd have a draft on vendor A's flows for 
shared line (including receiving calls, making calls, holding on one 
line, picking up on another et.c). So we end up with a bunch of these 
documents, we can then sort through what the interop problems would be, 
and produce the actual deliverable, which shows only enough flows to 
demonstrate what the problems are, and then makes recommendations on how 
to fix it. The intermediate drafts could either be published as 
informational or simply discarded once the final product is achieved for 
each functional primitive.

Comments on this proposal?

Thanks,
Jonathan R.

Hi,

 Sorry for my belated response.

 The milestone is merely a guide to get work done and to set priority.
If the work is done before the milestone's date, I don't see why it can't
be called to go through WGLC sooner than the current date on the
charter, if you still want to have the date changed on the charter, I thi=
nk
we need to see what other's thoughts are in this.

 Please speak up if you agree and believe that CCBS/CCNR
can be finished within this year and are ready to contribute your time to
make it happen. Also please speak up if you oppose to the idea of changin=
g
the milestone so CCBS/CCNR is targeted for Dec 2007.

 Regards
  Shida

 I haven't seen any comments to this, I remember there were
few people at the BoF that had contention to how the current
deliverables were organized (categorized), and it would be good
to hear from those that spoke up at Prague.

 As a personal concern, by broadening the scope to "features that
likely have commonality in ABC" although seems to be a good approach
to avoid the SIPPING-16, it seems to open up a door for 
never ending variations to come in that may utilize the commonality
(sets of primitives) of the deliverable to be considered.

 Any idea to prevent this so we can actually get something out there in
the world in a reasonable time frame?

  Shida

I'm not sure that is really a problem. If there are more related 
submissions for consideration, why not consider them? I don't think 
there will be a never ending set of these things. This will be limited 
by what people are willing to work on.

I agree with Paul here; this is something we can evaluate as we prepare 
the final deliverable. I'd suggest that, for each deliverable, we start 
with the set of features we think is in scope for that, and ask folks to 
contribute flows for those features so we can identify interoperability 
problems. If folks want to contribute flows for other related features, 
the group can evaluate them and decide whether we should consider them 
as part of this functional group or not.

Dear Shida,
We think that the work could be done within this year. Martin who is =
heavily involved within this work can progress it. We can also provide =
such work power to make it happen. Who can we act further on this issue?

HI All,

Just a note about milestone dates in general ... the chairs can =20
change the dates easily at any point to reflect their best guess of =20
when the milestone will get done. There is basically just need to =20
notify the right folks (including ADs). So if we get the dates wrong =20
here, we can easily change them as we learn more and the work =20
progresses. That said, it would be nice if the dates were a realistic =20=

estimate. The important thing to me about the dates is they show the =20
order that we expect the work to get done in and they help prioritize =20=

which items and priority for agenda time.

One other notes is that across IETF, the date estimates are almost =20
always too optimistic. If you want to see  some dates that I =20
personally got really wrong - check out my original proposed dates =20
for the BEHAVE WG :-)

Cullen

PS - Don't let me discourage you - if this can all be done in a year =20
I would love to see that happen and though I know past history might =20
indicate it will take longer, I see no reason that it could not be =20
done in a year. I would like to push RAI to work on less things and =20
complete them faster then move on to next thing instead of having a =20
zillion things all in slow motion.

 Below is the Charter that was submitted to
IESG to be discussed. We modified the charter
to reflect Jonathan's comments about making the
deliverables less specific to a particular
feature and to focus on functional primitives.

 Regards
  Shida


************** CHARTER TEXT (ver.6) ****************************

General Information:

Name : Basic Level of Interoperability for SIP Services (BLISS)

Chairs : Jason Fischl, Shida Schubert

Technical Advisor : Jonathan Rosenberg

RAI Area Advisor : Cullen Jennings

RAI Area Director(s) : Cullen Jennings and Jon Peterson


Description of the working group:

The focus of the group is to facilitate effective feature
interoperability for features sharing common functional primitives
utilizing SIP in heterogeneous network environments as noted below.

SIP's approach to supporting more advanced features and applications
has been to specify a number of primitive operations, including refer,
dialog replacement and joining, and event packages, and then to allow
those primitives to be combined in many ways to realize different
features. This approach avoids the need for standardized definitions of
 a feature, which can severely limit innovation and broad applicability.

While this approach brings great flexibility and generality, it
complicates interoperability. Without any kind of standardized definition
of a particular feature, each implementation creates its own definition
and corresponding set of call flows and primitives used to realize this
feature. In practice, this has resulted in a poor track record for
interoperability for more advanced features which make assumptions on
supported SIP extensions and behaviors from other elements.

The problem is exacerbated by the desire for these features to work
across many types of SIP endpoints, including SIP hardphones, softphones,
and gateways to the PSTN and other VoIP networks including non-centralized
environments, and for the desire to work across domain boundaries and to
interwork with the PSTN, when applicable.

The focus will not be on rigorous definition of what the specific feature
is and exactly how it works. Rather, the focus will be on documenting the
variations that exist in the wild sharing common interop problems,
figuring out a minimum baseline requirement for a UA and servers(minimum 
set
of primitives etc.), defining minimum levels of functionality and 
functional
primitives required to realize a broad class of related features, and on
interoperating with other elements which might implement one of those
features in different ways.

The BLISS working group will coordinate closely with the SIP and SIPPING
working groups. Like SIPPING, its role is to focus on applications of the
 SIP protocol and not on core extensions to SIP itself. The difference
between SIPPING and BLISS, is that BLISS is focused on a particular type
of SIP application - call features, and in particular, advanced call
features requiring non-trivial call control. SIP applications such as
configuration, presence, SIP extensions for IM, and session policy are
clearly out of scope for BLISS and remain the sole province of SIPPING.
Of course, any features considered by BLISS will support the full range of
multimedia supported by SIP - audio, video, text, messaging, and so on.

The BLISS working group will focus on resolving interpretability issues
on four functional primitives as an initial milestone. Summary for each
of the functional primitives are as follows.

 A "Problem Statement" document will also be charted as the first
deliverable of this working group. This document will describe the
problem this working group is trying to address, the criteria to be
met for items to be accepted and a template for documenting a draft
for this working group.

Line Sharing

Description: this covers the functionality required for multiple UA 
instances
  to be able to see and utilize sessions made to/from either one. It covers
  a range of features including:

  *  multiple call appearances
  *  call suspend/resume
  *  retrieve
  *  conference across appearances

Parking

Description: this covers functionality required to move calls from one 
instance to
  another without pre-arranged knowledge of the set of instances on 
which the
  call is to be shared. Basically a dynamic version of line sharing in a 
sense.
  It would cover features including:

  * park
  * parked retrieval
  * directed park
  * directed pickup

Automated Handling

Description: this covers functionality required for a user to indicate, 
asynchronously
  from the time of a call, what the handling of a future call should be. 
It covers the
  rules on who implements the processing and how it is signaled. Covers 
features including:

  * DND
  * CFU
  * CFNA


Call Queing   

Description: this covers functionality required to queue a call when the 
callee
 is not available, handling of a que and notifying when callee is ready to
 receive a call. Covers features including:

  * CCBS
  * CCNR



Guiding principles for this working group work will include:

- Identify functional primitives with interoperability issues, based on 
an analysis of
  variations of features sharing same or similar functional primitives 
within heterogeneous
  network(s). Provide a clear description of any interoperability 
problems that are
  identified by documenting the variations that exist in the wild for 
features that is
  already implemented.

- Document minimum baseline requirements relevant to the functional 
requirements
  for addressing the interoperability issue.
    Criteria to consider:   
    * who is responsible for invoking?
    * who is responsible for implementing?   
    * how does the functional primitive interact with multiple media types?
    * how does the functional primitive work between administrative domains?

- Initiate analysis of the pros and cons of key approaches to addressing
  the requirements.

- Where the requirements can be satisfied within the capabilities of the
  current standards, produce BCPs [and appropriate call-flows] to document
  the best approach.

- Where normal event packages or SIP uri parameter is all what's needed to
  prevent interoperability issues, appropriate extensions and its usage
  would be defined and documented.

- Where extensions to standards are required beyond what's mentioned above,
  bring the analysis, requirements and need for new extensions to the
  appropriate working group (SIP, SIPPING or SIMPLE).

- As in the SIPPING charter, the security of all the deliverables will 
be of
  special importance.

 *Deliverable may attempt to...
  1. Define a single approach to solve the problem.
  2. Allow variations but mandate support for more than one mechanism.
  3. Demonstrate that interoperability is possible even when entities
     provide the feature with the functional primitive differently.


Goals and Milestones
