[Koha] SIPServer abaility

[Eric Bégin]

Joseph,

Actually, Koha doesn't use a SIP server, it is a SIP server.

External clients can make request to the server in order to perform some 
tasks such as marking a book as borrowed, displaying a list of borrowed 
items, and so on.

The primary use of the SIP protocol is for self checkout kiosque which 
allows patrons to check out book without having to go the the 
circulation counter.

Hope that clarifies a bit how SIP is used :)

Cheers,

Eric Bégin
