Hi Jonathan;

 I think when I was reading conditions in section 5.1,I understood
that  it meant if one of the condition is met "target" would be
added, which would have left room for 800 use cases based on
static configuration as you mentioned below.

 But I really don't see how it would differ whether the mapping is
configured through REGISTRATION or not.

 For example the mapping below can be configured through
registration(UA registering to directory and directory registering
to 1-800 number), in which case it will result in 2 H-I entry with
"target" parameters according to the specification(If both proxies
that does the translation supports this specification)...

 I guess I don't really see the reason why the text has to be so
restrictive.

 Regards
  Shida

Actually I removed the 800 use case because it doesn't work so well with the proposed mechanism. The reason is that, this draft is very crisp about how you determine if a URI is a 'target' or not - based on a REGISTRATION. However, for 8xx numbers, my assumption is that they would typically be translated to a non-8xx number by some other configured translation on the server, not via a registration.

For example, a server might have a config like this:

1-800-555-1212:
 replace with: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

and then individual UAs register as 'directory'.

In reality this was a problem in the UA loose route draft too; its really hard to programatically determine that something is a target vs. not a target.

Jonathan;
Thanks for writing up the draft.
There was a use-case for freephone number mentioned in section 2.7 of
loose-route draft which no longer exists in this draft.
I do recall that in section 2.7 of loose-route you expressed that freephone number is just another form of alias, so I am assuming that is the reason you removed the text OR was there any technical reason why you removed
the use-case?
If there is no technical reason behind removing the text, could you
add its use for freephone number as a use-case either as a separate
sub-section or as part of alias use-case..
Thanks & Regards

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.

   Title           : Delivery of Request-URI Targets to User Agents

   Filename        : draft-rosenberg-sip-target-uri-delivery-00.txt

When a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) proxy receives a request
targeted at a URI identifying a user or resource it is responsible
for, the proxy translates the URI to a registered contact URI of an
agent representing that user or resource.  In the process, the
original URI is removed from the request.  Numerous use cases have
arisen which require this information to be delivered to the user
agent.  This document describes these use cases and defines an
extension to the History-Info header field which allows it to be used
to support those cases.
