Section 5.2) of draft-ietf-sipping-dialogusage-06 indicates that at 408
response (or a time out) to a transaction within a usage of dialog should
affect only that specific usage of the dialog and should not affect the
other usages as such.
But is n't the 408 response  indicating that the request has timed out ?
which basically should mean that the other UA has either died or is in some
infinite looping condition?
Why should not the entire dialog state change to terminated ? why should a
UA wait for timeouts on all the other usages ?
