[sr-dev] SIP-I ?

Someone else approached me at Fosdem (iirc), saying they are working on 
(or already have) a module to deal with SIP-I, but it may not actually 
happen to get it from there (unless the person is here and can confirm 
more).

Anyhow, adding in a new module is ok as long as there is a maintainer 
for it in the first year. Most of my modules were added because I needed 
them, not because there was another potential user. In this case, as 
said above, I expect more to use it, but that does not matter at the 
end. So I would find it useful to have.

Just for sake of completeness, besides the maintainer rule, the only 
constraint for modules would be not to be something very specific just 
for a private use case (e.g., a connector to an internal system, not 
available to others at all, with custom protocol and no chance for 
additional use cases). Not the case here, of course, being actually 
about a recognized standard.

Cheers,
Daniel
