SIP stands for 'Session Initiation Protocol', an IETF standard described by
10 382 Adrian Georgescu
[http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3261 RFC 3261]. SIP is an Internet application-layer control protocol that can establish,
11 346 Adrian Georgescu
modify and terminate multimedia sessions such as Internet telephony calls
12 346 Adrian Georgescu
(VoIP). Media can be added to (and removed from) an existing session.

SIP allows the endpoints to negotiate and combine any type of session they
15 500 Adrian Georgescu
mutually understand like Audio, Video, Instant Messaging (IM), File Transfer,
16 500 Adrian Georgescu
Desktop Sharing and provides a generic event notification system with
17 500 Adrian Georgescu
real-time Publications and Subscriptions about state changes that can be
18 500 Adrian Georgescu
used for asynchronous services like Presence, Message Waiting Indicator and

The software allows you to create real-time SIP client or server applications without having to read [http://rfc3261.net/ the +1200 RFC documents] behind it. The SDK can be used to add Audio, Video, IM and Presence functionality to any Internet connected device as long as Python/C environment is supported by such platform.
