[OpenSER-Users] Unable to do transformation on expires param if display name present

Often there is more than one way to achieve the desired result. In this case 
it could probably also be done using textops and some ugly regular 
expression. However I still believe I was using the transformation correctly 
and that the transformation is broken in some situations. As you say "the 
param transformation is designed for 'name=value;'  list of tokens". In this 
case it is "expires=value" in the example $(ct{param.value,expires}. When it 
works correctly, it locates the parameter list which follows the ";" and then 
it searches the parameter list for the named parameter. If $ct contains white 
space the parameter list is not found.

The following is an example of the $(ct{param.value,expires} construct when it 
works correctly. Thanks for having a look at this.

looks like deregistration
