   Correct, but are you saying there might be more than one agent with a
   different idea on the entity-tags of entities pertaining to a certain
   resource? In other words, that the resource has multiple agents that may
   have a different view of the resource state?

   I believe this is disallowed per RFC3265 already.

I doubt things could work with multiple agents that have a different
view of the resource state.

But there might be multiple agents with different addresses, from whom
you request the state of the same resource using different SIP URIs.
(Which ultimately might all be destinations reached by sending
requests to the same AOR.)

I don't think it interferes with the subnot mechanism, but my point is
that a resource might *not* have a single, specific SIP URI, either as
the request-URI when the SUBSCRIBE reaches the agent(s) which can
deliver its state, or as the address to which UAs subscribe.

All you need to make subnot work is that every UA agrees on which
subscriptions are "for the same resource", and that all notifiers for
"the same resource" generate the same etags for the same state, and
different etags for different state.
