I strongly feel that IETF should define a standard where media-description is defined to propagate SIP MESSAGE as session-mode. This way small applications like synchronization of some part of my address boob with peer etc. can be developed where MSRP will be an overkill and page-mode messaging may have performance impact on the network. Any opinion on this?
