This is an interesting discussion, however I'm not sure that we are going to get answers to the questions that Pat is asking. Only time will tell how services providers make money off of IP based telephony services. However, this is not the purpose of proposing the addition of the session timer to the SIP protocol. The primary purpose is to give the stateful SIP Proxy Server a method of determining the validity of the individual sessions for which it is keeping state. Are there comments on the mechanisms proposed in the session-timer draft?
