- A B2BUA may only support an option if the device on the other
   side also supports it. The device on the other side can change
   over time.

I think, *when you can*, you should list all the options you support all 
the time.

This is an area that needs some clarification. Some people think the 
scope of Supported/Require is a transaction, some a dialog, some for as 
long as not changed, ... There is no great clarity on this in the specs. 
Its more a matter of observation based on what behavior is called for in 
various specs defining options.

I don't have data on this. Maybe there is some from SIPit.

Note: this isn't really just about Require/Supported. There are other 
headers with similar issues:

Accept, Accept_Encoding, Accept-Language, Allow

        Thanks,
