`
`Adam,
`
`I will agree with you on this one.
`
`Yet I want to emphasize the need for conservatism on the originating
`side. I have repeatedly seen cases where somebody says on of:
`- I can reuse the same callid because the from and to tags will
` make the dialog id unique
`- I can reuse the same from tag because the callid and to tag will
` make the dialog id unique
`- I can reuse the same to tag because the callid and from tag will
` make the dialog id unique
`
`Of course nobody agrees on which ones really must be unique.
`
`When you reason this way you are betting that everybody else involved
`has made compatible assumptions to the one you are making.
`
`Thanks,
`Paul
