[Sipping] Combined overload control draft

[Volker Hilt <[e-mail]>]

We have submitted a new overload control draft that combines the two 
existing overload drafts: draft-hilt-sipping-hopbyhop-overload-00 and 
draft-malas-sipping-congestion-header-01.

In addition to combining the existing drafts, the new draft has been 
completely revised to accommodate comments and feedback received and it 
has a new section that discusses design considerations and introduces a 
control model for SIP overload control.

	Title		: Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) Overload Control
	Author(s)	: V. Hilt, et al.
	Filename	: draft-hilt-sipping-overload-00.txt

   Overload occurs in Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) networks when
   SIP servers have insufficient resources to handle all SIP messages
   they receive.  Even though the SIP protocol provides a limited
   overload control mechanism through its 503 response code, SIP servers
   are still vulnerable to overload.  This specification defines a new
   SIP overload control mechanism that protects SIP servers against
   overload.

NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.

Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
