documenting is a great thing to do. draft-ietf-sipping-cc-framework
may provide you with some very reasonable text.
implementation is not necessarily fature of SER -- it is frequently
a feature of end-devices (ED).

ED feature, specified in the basic SIP spec (there is a difference in
SDP usage between obsoleted and current SIP spec)
># Music on Hold
ED feature.

ED feature. there is an internet draft specifying use of REFER
for call transfer. (I'm off-line and can't look it up for you,
but all of that should be somewhere at www.iptel.org/ietf)

ED feature

a way to do so is to set up permanent UsrLoc entry using SerWeb.

Currently, voicemail examples in the 'examples' directory are closest.
(We don't have individualized forwarding preferences yet.)

I'm not sure how to do it easily -- I suspect it would take quite
some call control. Having all telephones rung is as easy as forking,
but having one of them joined a conversation entered by another one
may be tricky.
># 3-way Call
end-device feature (e.g., cisco and mitel have three party conferencing).
If two calls in parallel is in conflict with available bandwidth, one
could take a network conferencing server too.
># Incoming Call Screening
># Outgoing Call Screening
one can configure accounting to generate records for serweb.

parallel forking is turned on by default. (if that implements what
"find-me" is called)
># Automatic Redial
I would say that's an ED feature. There are some drafts specifying
subscribtion to call state but I think that having the phone tried
regularly is simpler and does not introduce dependency on
a rarely implemented feature.
