Re: [Sip] INFO Issue: Ignore Non-Supported Info Package Types
Aargh. Got truncated :-( See below.

The text currently says that if one endpoint indicates it does not
support an Info-Package, that endpoint is to ignore subsequent Info-
Send headers sent by the other endpoint that continues to indicate
support for that Info-Package.
On the one hand, this continual resending of an Info-Send offer does
no harm, in that unless the recipient indicates support of that
package, the sender will not send it. Moreover,
this enables later negotiation of package support. I suppose this
could be useful if an endpoint did not want to receive a certain
package until a certain point in the lifetime of the dialog.
On the other hand, if the sender does not stop sending Info-Send, the
receiver has no way of knowing the sender understood the receiver's
request to not receive INFO's from that package.
