Re: [Sip] INVITE client transaction

["Matthias Konrad" <mkonrad@hsr.ch>]

Hi
You have to distinguish if you are looking at the client side INVITE process as
whole or just at the client side invite transaction.
The client side invite transaction is just cabable of acknowledgeing one 2xx
response. Of course one invite request can result
in multiple dialogs. So the UAC core has to answer further 2xx responses. He
has to do this statelessly because the 
client side invite transaction is already in the terminated state which means,
that it can be destroyed. The 64*T1 seconds
say how long the UAC core has to do this work.
Personally I agree with you that the naming here could be a bid clearer.
