In Prague I agreed to review the overview draft, and provide
comments/changes.  Based on some of the discussions at the meeting, I think
we should add something to Page 5, paragraph 3.  The private federations are
good, but limit innovation.  I think the private federation sentence should
be re-written to something like:

Though SIP is used between domains, it is typically through private
federation agreements.  While such agreements are positive, they cause a
"least common denominator" problem, which has limited the growth of advanced
SIP features, 
        and prevented the innovation that we expected SIP to drive.


Maybe this belongs some other place in the introduction, but I think this is
about more than just any-to-any for the sake of any-to-any.  Its about the
feature improvement that can flourish when non-supportive intermediaries are
removed from the path.
