Re: [Sip] I-D Action:draft-ietf-sip-body-handling-03.txt



Hi Paul,

Section 9 of the draft contains the following text:

    Authors of SIP extensions making use of 'multipart/related' bodies
    have to explicitly address the handling of the disposition types of
    the body parts within the 'multipart/related' body.  Authors wishing
    to make use of 'multipart/related' bodies should keep in mind that
    UAs that do not understand 'multipart/related' will treat it as
    'multipart/mixed'.

Let me know whether or not you think this text is enough and, if not, 
please propose the additions, removals, or modifications to the current 
text that you think are needed.

Thanks,

Gonzalo
