Hello and thands for your answer
As you can see, what I'm trying to do is studying IMS and use SER for
it. So, I wanted to start by little problems like headers.
It could be helpful whether someone could give me his/her point of view
about IMS and SER. It means, what big problems they see to adapt SER to
act as IMS Proxy and, on the other hand, what things they think could be
easily done, maybe with little changes on modules?.
It could help me to know how big could be this work, and whether it's
worth or not. I imagine that it's not a priority to Iptel's guys (or it
is?) write or adapt modules in order to adapt SER to IMS.
By the way, a question about writting new module. Based on your
experience, how many time and people could take write a new module based
on rr to add Path header and extract information from headers?
Really thank you for your answers, comments and help.

I know how IMS Path header field works. If you want to
do something like
this then you will need to write a new module. A lot of code from rr
module could be reused, the tricky part would be storing this
information in usrloc (it is possible but requires more coding).
