Watchers are defined as entities that request (i.e., subscribe to)
information about a resource. There is fairly complex state
associated with these subscriptions. The union of the state for all
subscriptions to a particular resource is called the watcher
information for that resource. This state is dynamic, changing as
subscribers come and go. As a result, it is possible, and indeed
useful, to subscribe to the watcher information for a particular
resource. In order to enable this, a format is needed to describe the
state of watchers on a resource. This specification describes an
Extensible Markup Language (XML) document format for such state.
This document is a product of the SIP for Instant Messaging and
Presence Leveraging Extensions Working Group of the IETF.
This is now a Proposed Standard Protocol.
This document specifies an Internet standards track protocol for
