I have a couple of questions about case-sensitivity in SIP.
Section 7.3.1 of RFC3261 states that tokens are always case-insensitive.
My questions relate specifically to the From/To tags and the branch
parameter (which I think are both types of tokens).

(1) Should the From and To tags be considered case-sensitive or
case-insensitive?
     e.g., are the following two tags considered to be equal:

          To: Bob <sip:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>;tag=a6c85cf
          To: Bob <sip:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>;tag=A6C85CF

(2) What about the branch parameter - is it considered case-sensitive or
case-insensitive?
     And if it is considered case-insensitive, what about the magic
cookie defined at the start of a branch parameter.
     Section 8.1.1.7 defines the magic cookie as "z9hG4bK"? 
     Is the value "Z9HG4BK" considered the same (and is it legal) ?
     So for the branch, I can think of the following cases:

    (i)   branch=z9hG4bK776asdhds
    (ii)  branch=z9hG4bK776ASDHDS
    (iii) branch=Z9HG4BK776ASDHDS

    Are these all legal and considered equal?

Thanks in advance for any help.
