Re: [Sip] WGLC for draft-ietf-sip-body-handling

[Gonzalo Camarillo <[e-mail]>]

Hi Cullen,

I would still like to stress that, even if the payload is binary, you 
still need to use the binary transfer encoding. What about the following 
change:

OLD:
   Consequently, UAs MUST use the binary transfer encoding for binary
   payloads in SIP.

NEW:
   Consequently, UAs MUST use the binary transfer encoding for all
   payloads in SIP, including binary payloads.

Cheers,

Gonzalo
