Comment (by fixxxer):

 Hi.

 I have serious doubts about SIPE could be merged with the SIP/ Simple
 protocol implemented by Thomas Butter.

 I initially tried to do that, but the LCS server has many changes and it
 break in almost 50% percent with the standard SIP/Simple. SIPE has a
 totally different authentication method, the comunication server/client
 protocol changes in syntax and added new tags coming exclusively from MSN.
 For example the LCS retrieve contacts from the server, uses TLS, TCP and
 UDP for the communication. Uses NTLS a not standard, indeed we still has
 problem with that.

 I think SIPE should be seen how a new protocol.

 Regards,

 Anibal
