As I recall from back when this was a topic of active
discussion, there
were significant issues about the semantics of the values.
I see that Rohan included semantics in the draft. But do
they agree with
the ones that you are trying to interoperate with?
One thing I see is that the cpc can have only one value. But
the list of
values does not seem to be mutually exclusive. For instance,
I would
think you could have a test call in combination with any of
the others.
And you you could have a police call from a cellular phone.
I suppose none of this is troubling if this is used only for
calls
sourced from the PSTN, since then the problem of classifying
is up to
the pstn side. But if a call originates for a sip client,
there must be
clear rules for how it is classified.
Also, how are the classifications authorized? It seems
likely that the
originating device will not be permitted to do it, but
rather that some
"trusted" middle box will have to do so.
And where do you expect this to be put? In P-A-I? If that is
the only
place where it makes sense, then perhaps a P-A-I header
parameter would
make more sense.
