COMMENT:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

-- Section 1 --

   In SIP-based systems that use MSRP, a chat session is formally
   negotiated just as any other session type is using SIP.

Nit: you need an appositive comma before "using SIP".

-- Section 6 --

   Here the idle state indicates that the
   sender is not actively composing a message, and the active state
   indicates that the sender is indeed actively composing a message (the
   sending client simply toggles between the two states, changing to
   active if the user is actively composing a message and changing to
   idle if the user is no longer actively composing a message).

This really sounds repetitious (because the repeating sounds repetitious
when it repeats).  I think you could end the parenthetical after "toggles
between the two states", because you've really already said the rest.

-- Section 11 --
The second paragraph looks like it's exactly the same as what's added in
stox-im, and that's a normative reference already.  Why not add a
citation to the security considerations in stox-im, and delete the second
paragraph, incorporating it by reference?
