Subject: [SIP] Difference between SIP and MGCP

Hi,

I am writing for the first time on this mailing list. So, hoping to get the
answer.
I have a very basic question. 
I understand SIP is useful for inter-MGC communication as well as for
tunneling of PSTN signalling across IP network.
But when we talk about SIP phone or residential gateways... Is SIP better
than MGCP or Megaco? If yes, then how ?
Is there any document which goes into detail about SIP and MGCP/Megaco
comparison?

Moreover, Is there any work going on for SIP trunking gateway?

regards

-nitin
