Re: [sipcore] [Technical Errata Reported] RFC7976 (5393)

Hi Roland,

When you say the 3GPP identified the need to send P-Visited-Network-ID in responses; was that an error in RFC7976 at the time of publication, or something that was realized after the RFC was published?

The former makes sense for an erratum. But situations where an RFC expresses the intent of the authors at the time of publication, but we learn later that we should have done something different are not appropriate for errata; those usually need us to update (or obsolete) the RFC through the usual processes.

Thanks!

Ben.
