I see no reason to deprecate SIP for chan_sip - I would encourage people running both channels while testing and while the new channel driver is getting stable and up to par. Having to switch between them doesn't make sense when you can run one on 5060 and another on 5080 or something similar.

I'm with Olle here. New users are going to be looking for a SIP channel 
driver. Leaving it named "gulp" will mean that you *have* to use a 
tutorial to set things up the first time.

"sipng" is fine with me,
"pjsip" would be my first suggestion.
