At this point, the charter does not mention SDP explicitly,
although if the extensibility portion of the sip-clf is done
right, you will be able to save the SDP as well in a log file.
Now correlating the SDP and the actual media to the particular
signaling messages is an orthogonal process to collecting the
information elements in the sip-clf.

Thank you.
