question on MIH event subscription



All,

I think the following statements should be true:

- any MIH .indication primitive shall be considered an MIH event
- an MIH User shall be notified about an MIH event only that User has 
explicit subscription for the event

Therefore, we will need to accept the following scenario as perfectly 
normal:

1. An MIH User invokes MIH_Configure_Link and sets some threshold in 
order to get a link report when that threshold is crossed;

2. But he forgets to (or intentionally does not) explicitly subscribe 
MIH_Link_Parameters_Report.indication event;

3. When the event happens, the User will not get the indication.

My reasoning is that one may want to build a User whose responsibility 
is just to set link thresholds but the responsibility for receiving and 
processing the events are delegated to a different User (or Users). The 
latter will subscribe for the event but not the former.
