Ballot Text

Technical Summary
 
  This document presents an extension to the Session Initiation Protocol
   (SIP)-Specific Event Notification mechanism (RFC 3265) for subscribing
   to a homogeneous list of resources.  Instead of the subscriber
   sending a SUBSCRIBE for each resource individually, the subscriber
   can subscribe to an entire list, and then receive notifications when
   the state of any of the resources in the list changes.
 
Working Group Summary
 
 The SIMPLE working group supported this capability strongly.  The document
 was transferred to the SIP working group because it needed a SIP option tag.
 There was a delay while reviewing and revising its discussion of identity.
 The Open Mobile Alliance has expressed a critical requirement for this
  specification.

Protocol Quality
 
 This protocol has been tested in SIMPLE interoperability sessions.  It was
 reviewed for the IESG by Allison Mankin.
