The Update method specification (draft-ietf-sip-update-02.txt) says the
following:

"A UAS that receives an UPDATE before it has generated a final response to a
previous UPDATE or INVITE on the same dialog MUST return a 500 response to
the new UPDATE, and MUST include a Retry-After field with a Retry-After
header field with a randomly chosen value between 0 and 10 seconds."

This suggests to us that a UAC would not be able issue an Update request
(and have it processed) before a response to a previously issued Invite or
Re-Invite request was received. However, the same specification illustrates
an Update within an initial Invite for the purposes of early media
establishment. This appears to us as a contradiction.

We suspect this rule requires clarification. We like to know what the rules
are for nesting Updates within Invites and Re-Invites, including
considerations for when SDP is included, or not included with the Update
request.

Thanks,
