[OpenSIPS-Devel] [RELEASES] Planing OpenSIPS 1.9.0 major release

[Bogdan-Andrei Iancu]

Hi Ryan,

Indeed, several SIP stacks do not properly implement in-dialog OPTIONS - 
this is why we want to add re-INVITE as this is widely supported.

1) we can add that on the wish list, let's see what time will allow to do.

2) interesting idea...We need to check on connecting on the fly - add it 
to the list.

3) why is it not working ? could you detail the issues you have there ?

Regarding the FUTEX patch  - it definitely looks really interesting - we 
will do a review and upload it on SVN.

Thanks and Regards,
