Re: [dispatch] Dispatch request: draft-kaplan-dispatch-sip-205-response-00

BTW, just to be clear - this is not an official request (or draft) from the STRAW Working Group.  It's an individual draft from an individual (me), and I'm requesting it be dispatched, and I suggest/recommend it be dispatched to SIPCORE.

That way the UAC would know it hasn't reached the end of its traceroute testing and to instead continue increasing max-forwards.  So we were thinking of doing this as a 205 response, along with a Reason header.  The below draft is for that new response code.
