[Asterisk-Users] New Asterisk bounty: SIP simultaneous

Well Andres is right but there are numerous problems with quite a few SIP
clients that do NOT follow the the SIP RFC correctly. There is a problem
with dialog creation in a number of SIP products out there. SIP dialog
creation is the critical part of the spec that supports parallel forking -
so be careful.
