Issue: End-to-End Id in answer messages
Submitter name: Adrian Constantin
Submitter email address: [email-masked] 
Date first submitted: 
Reference: 
Document: Base 07
Comment type: E 
Priority: 1 
Section: 3.0 and 6.2
Rationale/Explanation of issue: 

There is a consensus about copying the end-to-end id from the request in the
answer issued by a home server, but the specification doesn't clearly state
it.

Requested Change: 

In section 3.0, End-to-End Identifier paragraph, change from

"Senders of request or answer messages MUST
insert a unique identifier on each message, by incrementing the
identifier by one (1)."

to:

"Senders of request messages MUST
insert a unique identifier on each message, by incrementing the
identifier by one (1). The originator of an Answer message
MUST ensure that the End-to-End Identifier field contains the same
value that was found in the corresponding request."

In section 6.2 add the following text:
"- The same End-to-End identifier in the request is used in the
answer."

Regards,

Adrian Constantin
