Ah okay, that's helpful. That SIP subscription spec does have some
similar elements to PubSubHubbub (e.g., fat pings), but it's heavily
reliant on SIP for its mechanics. I'd like to think that what we're
trying to define here with PSHB is a simpler, more stand-alone
publish/subscribe protocol over simple HTTP. PSHB's current reliance
on Atom/RSS is to promote bootstrapping of a common use-case, but
isn't necessary long-term.
