Re: [reSIProcate] difference between PUBLISH and notify

[Ryan Kereliuk <ryker@xxxxxxxxx>]

You seem to already understand SUBSCRIBE and NOTIFY so I'll direct your
attention to RFC 3903 (PUBLISH).  In particular, have a look at the
examples in Section 15 of that document.  You'll see that PUBLISH can
be used to communicate state information to a server so other elements
can SUBSCRIBE to this state at the server rather than at the originating
client.  (It will make sense when you read the call flow.)

Thanks,
