This draft proposes a framework and rules for defining user agent profile datasets in the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP). It aims to provide an easy setup for working devices and allows for extensibility and aggregation of user-profile information. Related drafts cover identity, SIP, VoIP features, and session/media policy datasets.

Motivation • config-framework provides a framework of delivering profile data to end user devices • config-framework does not provide any framework or rules for the datasets themselves • Current draft aims to provide that (next slide)
Goals • Provide the end user with the easiest of possible set up to result in a working device providing service – the holy grail is as easy as a POTS phone • Aims to provide a framework for defining user-agent profile datasets • A Base schema • Syntax • Extensibility • Aggregation rules • A set of small datasets that together will form the aggregate user-profile
Philosophy: • A series of small datasets are better than large monolithic datasets • A series of small datasets also provides the granularity for the implementer • Easier to phase in various features • Extensibility
In Scope • A Schema and associated syntax to specify individual properties • Use cases • Example datasets • Rules that govern the aggregation of individual properties • Rules that govern precedence and/or aggregation for properties that overlap
Out of scope • Individual properties – specific names and values • They are the scope of any drafts derived out of this framework

Related and derived Drafts… • These depend on this draft and are built on top • There are derived drafts that are WG drafts while this base draft is not
Decisions on the individual derived drafts • Should some of them be aggregated (not part of todays decision) • Specific targeted comments on individual drafts will be addressed • Jari Urpalainen had sent some comments specific to the base draft and reviewed the xml in response to a request from Mary and those will be incorporated
Questions: • Should this draft (draft-petrie-sipping-profile-datasets) become a working group draft?
