Dale: Are you suggesting that we mandate that all IPv4 addresses
written in dotted-decimal form be really decimal?  Or just that the
SIP addresses behave so?

I doubt we can do the former through sip-ipv6-abnf-fix; I suspect
we can do the latter if the WG (which one?  sipcore?) or sponsoring
AD agrees on it, although this particular draft is limited to
fixing the IPv6 ABNF.

Thanks,
