Recent examples can be found in the "Action" announcements for approved documents. The approval announcement contains the following sections: Technical Summary In certain types of multimedia communications, a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) request is distributed to a group of SIP User Agents (UAs). The sender sends a single SIP request to a server which further distributes the request to the group. This SIP request contains a list of Uniform Resource Identifiers (URIs), which identify the recipients of the SIP request. This URI-list is expressed as a resource list XML document. This specification defines an XML extension to the XML resource list format that allows the sender of the request to qualify a recipient with a copy control level similar to the copy control level of existing e-mail systems. Working Group Summary The SIPPING WG supports the development and advancement of this document. Document Quality This document defines no new protocol elements, but rather registers a new disposition type, a new XML namespace, and a new XML schema. Personnel Mary Barnes is the WG chair shepherd. Jon Peterson is the responsible Area director.
