I am the assigned Gen-ART reviewer for draft-roach-sip-http-subscribe-06.txt For background on Gen-ART, please see the FAQ at . Please resolve these comments along with any other Last Call comments you may receive. Summary: This draft is almost ready for publication as Proposed Standard but I have a few comments. Meta ==== * How does the mechanism in the draft relate to say an atom or an RSS feed? When would one use the sip subscribe mechanism instead of atom and vice versa? Perhaps it is out of scope of this document, but I was just curious. Minor ===== * Section 3.2 The example using two URLs each in www.example.com and www.example.org is too complex. I do not see the value in adding the www.example.org URLs. Are these necessary Can you simplify this to For example: consider the case in which a client wishes to monitor the resources http://www.example.com/goat,and http://www.example.com/sheep. It would use HTTP to perform HEAD and/or GET operations on these resources. The responses to these operations will contain link relations for both monitor and monitor-type for each of the four resources. Assume the monitor link for http://www.example.com/goat is sip:a94aa000@example.com; for http://www.example.com/sheep, sip:23ec24c5@example.com. Further, assume the monitor-group link for http://www.example.com/goat and http://www.example.com/sheep are both sip:httpmon@rls.example.com, Because they share a common monitor-group link, the client would group together http://www.example.com/goat and http://www.example.com/sheep in a single subscription. It sends this subscription to the monitor-group URI (sip:httpmon@rls.example.com), with a resource-list containing the relevant monitor URIs (sip:a94aa000@example.com and sip:23ec24c5@example.com). * Section 3.3 This section is very interesting and useful. Why does it need to be removed? Typo ==== * Section 4.7 s/supress/suppress/
