Type: Technical
Reported by: Peter Dawes <peter.dawes@vodafone.com>

Section: 4.2

Original Text
-------------
The second INVITE (4) and the ACK (8) contain a Security-Verify
   header field that mirrors the Security-Server header field received
   in the 421.

Corrected Text
--------------
The second INVITE (4) contains a Security-Verify
   header field that mirrors the Security-Server header field received
   in the 421.

Notes
-----
RFC 3329 Section 2.6, Table 1: Summary of Header Usage. indicates that Security-Client, Security-Server, Security-Verify are "Not applicable" to the SIP ACK request.

RFC 3261 says "Not applicable" means that the header field MUST NOT be present in a request.  If one is placed in a request by mistake, it MUST be ignored by the UAS receiving the request."

rejected. When a decision is reached, the verifying party (IESG)
