[SIPForum-techwg] SIPconnect 1.1 timeline - strawman ..

I was made aware of work from TISPAN (DTS/TISPAN-02040-NGN-R2) with
regards to IP-PBX to SSP registration examples.  The distinction lies
between a Enterprise <-> SSP relationship being either an UNI and/or a
NNI.  Due to there being evidence of requirements for both, I propose
that the scope of 1.1 speaks to both the UNI and NNI use cases.  Though
the UNI isn't explicitly ruled out, I had the mind-set that 1.0 (and
1.1) interface was speaking to an NNI.
