RFC 3911: The Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) "Join" Header

In plain English — editorial summary, not part of the RFC

This document defines a new header for use with SIP multi-party applications and call control. The Join header is used to logically join an existing SIP dialog with a new SIP dialog. This primitive can be used to enable a variety of features, for example: "Barge-In", answering-machine-style "Message Screening" and "Call Center Monitoring". Note that definition of these example features is non-normative. [STANDARDS-TRACK]
