Eric, I would just like to correct a slight inaccuracy in this draft. RFC 3372 does not specify the use of INFO for QSIG, but RFC 3204 (which is referenced by RFC 3372) does define the MIME type for QSIG. The transport of QSIG using the SIP INFO method is instead specified in Standard ECMA-355 from Ecma-International. This is indeed a very similar usage of INFO to that specified in RFC 3372 and should be allowed in the proposed update to RFC 2976.
