	Title           : Shared Appearances of a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP=

Abstract:
   This document describes the requirements and implementation of a
   group telephony feature commonly known as Bridged Line Appearance
   (BLA) or Multiple Line Appearance (MLA), or Shared Call/Line
   Appearance (SCA).  When implemented using the Session Initiation
   Protocol (SIP), it is referred to as shared appearances of an Address
   of Record (AOR) since SIP does not have the concept of lines.  This
   feature is commonly offered in IP Centrex services and IP-PBX
   offerings and is likely to be implemented on SIP IP telephones and
   SIP feature servers used in a business environment.  This feature
   allows several user agents (UAs) to share a common AOR, learn about
   calls placed and received by other UAs in the group, and pick up or
   join calls within the group.  This document discusses use cases,
   lists requirements and defines extensions to implement this feature.
   This specification updates RFC3261 and RFC4235.

>=20
> This draft is on the right track but has open issues, described in the re=
view.

ine

ues
> are minor.  The draft is well-written and reasonably clear for the most p=
art,
> although significant SIP expertise is required to completely understand i=
t.
>=20
> Major issues:  None.
>=20
> Minor issues:
>=20
> 4.1 - REQ-16:
>=20
>    in this case, seizing the line is the same thing as dialing.
>=20
> That seems wrong - I would have thought it was a "prerequisite" as
> opposed to "the same thing" because seizing the line is immediately
> followed by a dialing request.
>=20
> 5.3.
>=20
>    A user may select an appearance number but then abandon placing a
>    call (go back on hook).  In this case, the UA MUST free up the
>    appearance number by removing the event state with a PUBLISH as
>    described in [RFC3903].
>=20
> What happens when that can't be done due to UA or network failure?
>=20
> 5.4.
>=20
>    A 400 response is returned if the chosen appearance number is invalid,
>=20
> Is that always a 400 (Bad Request) or is any 4xx response allowed?  If
> it's always 400, add the words "Bad Request" after "400".
>=20
>    If the Appearance Agent policy does not allow this, a 400 response
>    is returned.
>=20
> Same question.  In addition, is 403 Forbidden allowed here?
>=20
>    If an INVITE is sent by a member of the group to the shared AOR (i.e.
>    they call their own AOR), the Appearance Agent MUST assign two
>    appearance numbers.  The first appearance number will be the one
>    selected or assigned to the outgoing INVITE.  The second appearance
>    number will be another one assigned by the Appearance Agent for the
>    INVITE as it is forked back to the members of the group.
>=20
> How does that interact with the single appearance UAs in 8.1.1 that won't
> understand the second appearance number?  A warning that such a UA can't
> pick up its call to its own AOR would suffice, either here or in 8.1.1.
>=20
> 9.1
>=20
>    A UA that has no knowledge of appearances must will only have
>    appearance numbers for outgoing calls if assigned by the Appearance
>    Agent.  If the non-shared appearance UA does not support Join or
>    Replaces, all dialogs could be marked "exclusive" to indicate that
>    these options are not available.
>=20
> Should that "could be marked" be changed to "SHOULD be marked" ?
> Also, analogous questions for "could" in 9.2 and "can" in 9.3.
>=20
> All three of these affect interoperability.
>=20
> 12. Security Considerations
>=20
> In general, this section is weak on rationale - the second, third and
> fourth paragraphs should all explain more about the purpose of and/or
> rationale for their security requirements (e.g., what does the security
> mechanism protect against and when/why might that protection be desired
> and/or required?).
>=20
>    NOTIFY or PUBLISH message bodies that provide the dialog state
>    information and the dialog identifiers MAY be encrypted end-to-end
>    using the standard mechanisms.
>=20
> What are "the standard mechanisms"?  List them, and provide references,
> please.
>=20
> Please ensure that the section 6 XML and Section 7 ABNF are
> syntax-checked with actual tools.
>=20
> Nits/editorial comments:
>=20
> p.10:
>=20
>    The next section discusses the operations used to implement parts of
>    the shared appearance feature.
>=20
> "The following list describes the operations ..." would be better.
>=20
> 5.3.1.
>=20
>    A UA wanting to place a call but not have an appearance number
>    assigned publishes before sending the INVITE without an 'appearance'
>    element but with the 'shared' event package parameter present.
>=20
> I think I understand what was intended here, but this would be clearer
> if "publishes" was replaced with language about sending a PUBLISH.
> It's also not completely clear whether "without" applies to the
> INVITE or the PUBLISH, so this sentence probably needs to be reworded.
>=20
> 5.4. - Expand B2BUA acronym on first use.
>=20
> idnits 2.12.13 ran clean.

> Thanks,
