Re: [Sip] INFO Framework - one pakage per INFO




Christer asked "Do we need to say anything about the number of packages?"

to which I believe we have an answer: "Yes. One per INFO".

I'm ok with this, and I thought it had already been settled. Why are we rehashing it?

We do allow multipart for legacy INFO (well, at least we don't disallow
it).

Do we need to say anything about the number of packages?

I'm not sure I understand the question. We should say: 1 INFO, 1 package. You make it sound like a package is a body-part. It's not. A package just defines a specific message use context, and rules thereof. You can define a info-package that specifies no bodies, for example.

Adding support for multiple packages, is like asking for a message to have multiple usage contexts and rules. It makes my head hurt. :)

I concur strongly with this position.
I started thinking about the which-application-do-I-give-this- message-to API, and realized that for some API models, multiple packages per INFO would be a major furball. Let's just not go there.
