Typically an INFO method would be part of an INVITE usage. As far as I
know the Event header is not defined for INFO. I wouldn't count on the
other end to associate the INFO request to the subscription even if you
were to include the Event header.
Basically there is no need to have INFO on a subscription usage because
all information could be passed via SUBSCRIBE and NOTIFY. Furthermore, I
have rarely seen INFO used in practice, usually used just to pass some
proprietary information.

Subject: [Sip] INFO message belongs only to INVITE dialog usage?

Hi all,

I have read rfc2976 - The SIP INFO Method, but I haven't really 
understood that INFO message belongs only to INVITE dialog usage, which 
however draft-ietf-sipping-dialogusage-04 claims in its part 5.3:


      5.3. Matching requests to usages



   For many mid-dialog requests, identifying the usage they belong to is
   obvious.  A dialog can have at most one invite usage, so any INVITE,
   UPDATE, PRACK, ACK, CANCEL, BYE, or INFO requests belong to it.

So my, question is:
    Can INFO message  belong to other usages, besides INVITE, such are  
SUBSCRIBE  or REFER?

Thanks in advance,
Nina.
