Stream: subscriptions
Topic: return oo on not accepted subscription?

Spec on the subscription page is not very clear on what to return if a server cannot honour a POSTed subscription. Eg. because the channel is not supported or one of the criteria is not supported. I think returning an OO with the issues and not storing the Subscription is the expected thing to do?

can store as in error

Yes I could, but then the client would only know it he (a) has prefer:return=representation and (b) analyzes the status in there. I think returning an OO is clearer. Could store it anyway, but what would be the point of storing a subscription that is in error from the start?

I didn't say which was better. just what you could do
