Summary:  This document is ready for publication as Proposed Standard,
with nits.

Nits/editorial comments:



This might be obvious to a SIP implementer, but the media type/subtype 


definition RFC is not referenced anywhere. Should it be?




3.3.5.  The Latent Configuration Attribute

   Latent configurations may be announced by use of the latent
   configuration attribute, which is defined in a manner very similar to
   the potential configuration attribute.  The latent configuration
   attribute combines the properties of a media line and a potential
   configuration.  The media type (mt=) and the transport protocol(s)
   (t=) MUST be specified since the latent configuration is independent
   of any media line present.  In most cases, the media configuration
   (m=) parameter MUST be present as well (see Section 4 for examples).



This doesn't look like a correct use of MUST, please reword not to use 


any RFC 2119 keyword or at least provide a pointer to a document that 


contains the original requirement.




   The lcfg attribute is a media level attribute.

 [...]

   If a cryptographic attribute, such as the SDES "a=crypto:" attribute
   [RFC4568], is referenced by a latent configuration through an acap
   attribute, any keying material required in the conventional
   attribute, such as the SDES key/salt string, MUST be included in
   order to satisfy formatting rules for the attribute.  The actual
   value(s) of the keying material SHOULD be meaningless, and the

Can you please elaborate on what are you trying to say here?

   receiver of the lcfg attribute MUST ignore the values.
