Silly, but allowed. > > Right, but the since that would make it an "unknown validity" config, > and the requirements do not mandate any UA to *use* an "unknown > validity" config... do you see a problem? The requirements explicitly allow the UA to use an "unknown validity" configuration. I don't think it would be appropriate to put in a MUST that says the UA should use any configuration data response - the data may be in the wrong format, corrupt, or have any other problem, so that would just lead to a different argument. > Instead of getting into an unknown-behavior state, why don't you > simply allow the HTTP response to NOT have a Link header, or define a > NULL URI to use - and then state that it means there is no > Subscription service and the UA MUST consider the HTTP-based config > valid? > > No one is going to be forced to use any of this specification.

Perhaps our fundamental disagreement is whether or not having a prompt way to reconfigure a UA is a requirement. When the SIP Forum chartered this work, it was agreed that that was requirement (and I certainly think it is). I think that a configuration mechanism that does not allow for updates under the control of the service won't be successful. Could we allow the Configuration Service to omit the Link? Obviously, we could. I think that would materially reduce the utility of the protocol and would be a bad idea. Clearly we differ on that.
