Subject: [Simple] Refreshing event State - New PUBLISH draft 01

Hi,

Step 10 in setcion 6 (processing PUBLISH Requests), implies that for all PUBLISH requests, including those related to refreshing existing event states, the ESC shall include an entity tag.
 
Is that the case ?

If that is the case, I am unclear as to why that is needed for the refresh case? 
Cant the UAC assume that the absence of an entity tag in the refresh cases simply imply resuing the same entity tag for future refreshes?
Also, if the ESC has to return an enity tag in the response, can the ESC reuse the same entity tag in such a case, or does it have to be a new one?
Finally, it would be desirable to expand section 5.3, where the issue is discussed, with these details.

Thanks
