[http://www.tech-invite.com/Ti-sip-IDs-SIMPLE.html#charter SIP SIMPLE] client is a SIMPLE SIP client. Which leads to the question how SIMPLE is [http://www.tech-invite.com/Ti-sip-IDs-SIMPLE.html#charter SIMPLE]. So let's try again:

SIP SIMPLE client is Python software library built on top of [http://pjsip.org PJSIP] that together

with middleware allows for easy development of Client/Server and
8 303 Adrian Georgescu
Peer-to-Peer Internet communications end-points based on SIP SIMPLE protocols for

voice, video, presence, instant messaging (IM) and file transfer capabilities.

11 303 Adrian Georgescu
The goal of this project is to deliver the best Open Source Python library for rich featured SIP end-points, while hiding the complex underlying functionality behind an easy to use high-level application-programming interface. This package supports to the SDP negotiation, audio codecs and NAT traversal functionality provided by PJSIP and will thus deliver rich communications combining instant messaging (IM), voice and video streams. It also supports file transfer and multi-party chat sessions using MSRP protocol, publication and subscription for rich presence information such as availability, moods, activities and geo-location, management for presence rules,  resource lists, RLS services using XCAP protocol.

47 313 Adrian Georgescu
SIP SIMPLE client is closely developed together with and tested against the most popular SIP SIMPLE server software available today: [http://opensips.org OpenSIPS], [http://openxcap.org OpenXCAP] and [http://msrprelay.org MSRPRelay]. Included with the library, a set of  [wiki:CommandLineTools command line tools] are available for setting up real time voice, IM and file transfer sessions, publish and subscribe to presence or other type of events.
