[Sipping] XCAP in sipping-config-framework-07
All,
it is still unclear to me what is the exact relationship between the config-framework and XCAP, and in particular whether/how it can be used *without* XCAP, for other types of content. I'm thinking in particular of the "application" profile-type, and the 'app-id' parameter now called 'auid', which sounds very XCAP-like.
Is it now a MUST to use the "application" profile-type with XCAP, and if not, how could that profile-type be used for content which is not XCAP-related?
XCAP is mentioned many times in the document but there is no clear statement about "When used with XCAP..." rather than "When used independently from XCAP..." (or similar).
Whatever the answer, it may need to be clarified in the text.
Thanks for clarifications
Regards,
Walter

This draft is currently in AD Review preparatory to being sent up for
IETF Last Call.
If we need to change it to resolve this issue, we need to get that
change agreed and made ASAP, and we need to let the AD know to "pull
back" the -07 draft.
Do we have a consensus that a change here is required?
