Could someone show an INFO message example if we would use CID?

Yup, we must reference that draft - no debate there.

If we don't support multiple packages, then I assume the case for
multiple body-parts in an INFO is what I'll call the "piggy-back" case.
You've got something going on that piggy-backs its bodies onto messages
of all/any type.  Like for example sipfrag or geo-loc.  Right?

So let me ask this: how would one handle multiple body-parts in
SUBSCRIBE, NOTIFY, or MESSAGE as defined today?  Or in INFO today?
MESSAGE, for example, has native support for text/plain and
message/cpim, so what if the piggy-backer happens to use one of those
content-types in a MESSAGE request?

I think/guess there are three possible answers:
1) We have to go back and update Sub/Not and Message for them to do
CID's as well.
2) We make only piggy-backers use CID for their body parts.
3) We say "don't do that".

Would (2) work??

I'm with Eric: cid handling has to be done for other things anyway, so
if we *have* to do something let's keep it to CID.
