Caixia,

I do not think specification missed anything. This is quite intentional.
There is no limit of how long the caller can be dialing the number (as
there is no limit on how long the caller can stay connected on a SIP call).
If you need to put a limit on this duration, this will have to be
application specific and does not need to be defined in the SIP spec. For
instance you can define that dial timeout when placing the call is 1 minute
and that will limit the duration of the proceeding state. Or you can set
the dial timeout at 10 minutes. Or you can set this to be unlimited and let
the caller hang up when they are done waiting for the call to connect. This
is really up to you. The same way you can put maximum call duration at 24
hours and limit calls this way or you can let the caller hang up when they
are done talking.
