Yes, but that was not the point. I am trying to figure out what the differences between the proposals are.

So, again: is the "late commitment" currently the ONLY difference between yours and Gonzalo's proposals, or is there something else?

Regards,

Christer

	Hi, 
	  
	Again, I strongly do NOT think we should choose an "evolution and extension" approach, and let organizations decide what is a new modification, and what isn't. Again, you can have entities which belong to DIFFERENT organizations´communicating with each other, and those should have a common understanding of the rules. 
	  
	If you have a closed network, where you know that every entity belongs to a single organization, you can of course do whatever you want. But, in that case you don't need to standardize it. 
	  
	Regards, 
	  
	Christer

	My draft is open for evolution and extension. My view is that: 
	
	Considering RFCs, "refine codecs" is "a new modification". And if some one(org/operator/internal usage) think "refine codecs" is part of the original modification. It still can assure its session state by nested transaction concept. 
	
	Some custom-built one really treated it as part of the original modification.

	Hi Hadriel,
	
	I guess Gonzalo will provide his summary soon, but I don't think there
	is currently a disagreement regarding pre-conditions. You call them
	"conditional offers", Gao calls them "notifications", but that's just
	wording... :)
	
	I think the one of the main issues at the moment is what happens after
	preconditions have been met on both sides:
	
	1) Is the change now commited/in-use, and a re-INVITE failure would not
	change that?                                       <----- "in-use"
	alternative
	
	OR
	
	2) Would a re-INVITE failure cause a fallback (this is what is meant by
	"late commitment")?                                <---- "late
	commitment" alternative
	
	
	If preconditions have NOT been met, and the re-INVITE fails, I think
	most agree that there will be a rollback to the "last committed state".
	
	
	Gao's draft also talk about other changes which would not be considered
	as "real" SDP offers, for example if you reduce codecs. But, at least I
	strongly prefer NOT to go into such details, because that would for sure
	cause interop issues. I am not sure what Gao's view on that is at the
	moment, though?
	
	
	Regarding the race condition, I think we can avoid that with some BCP-
	and guidance text.
	
	
	Regards,
	
	Christer

	Is there an email in this long thread that summarizes the issues?
	It's impossible to follow this thread. :)
	
	I'm not clear on what the issues are with pre-conditions that make
	failed offers concept break.  To me, pre-conditions are basically not
	real SDP offers; they're conditional offers.  Until the *all* the
	conditions are met, it's not "committed".  You continue using the last
	committed state.  I know there are race conditions, but considering how
	rare pre-conditions are in the real world (especially in re-Invite's),
	that I'm having trouble imagining why we should care about corner cases
	of such.  Regardless, I vote for any fixing that needs to happen because
	of pre-conditions should be around changing pre-condition logic, even if
	it means completely re-writing how pre-conditions works - don't change
	normal SIP or SDP. (not that anyone is proposing it, I just can't tell
	form this thread)
	
	Re-Invites and SDP offer/answer have so many interop issues in the wild
	even without pre-conditions, that this whole thread scares me. :(
