Subject: [Simple] Question on draft-ietf-simple-presence-10 and Allow-Events

RFC 3265 section 3.3.7 indicates:

   Any node implementing one or more event packages SHOULD include an
   appropriate "Allow-Events" header indicating all supported events in
   all methods which initiate dialogs and their responses (such as
   INVITE) and OPTIONS responses.

The SUBSCRIBE request to an event package surely falls into the category of a method initiating a dialog.

If I look at draft-ietf-simple-presence-10 then I find no mention of the Allow-Events header, even though examples are given for the contents of SUBSCRIBE and NOTIFY methods to subscribe to the presence event package (section 8).

So should these examples contain an Allow-Events header value of "presence" or is the acceptance of a subscription to a package meant to be one of the cases when the SHOULD in RFC 3265 does not apply. 

regards
