So I want to send you Info relating to a session but the details about what

describes the body content, which may be ambiguous with usage of the body.

Thank you! That's the key point I'm trying to make.

One
could argue Info is essentially a Notify, except in a subscription
implicitly created by, and tied to the dialog from, an Invite.

Now you're just *trying* to push my buttons. :)

There are certain predictable objections that I would raise to such a characterization; take them as given.

The key point here is that NOTIFY will inherently be associated with an event package, which provides enough information for the recipient to know what to do with the body. INFO, lacking such information, is ambiguous. And, as before, the hardest problem isn't interpreting what is sent to you; it is indicating what *can* be sent to you.
