Steps (12) to (19) are necessary if a policy contains elements that need 
to be shared among policy servers. For example, if both policy servers 
insert media intermediaries, then each intermediary needs to know the 
address of the other intermediary so that media streams can be exchanged 
between them. This is discussed in section 4.5.2.

After two rounds of subscriptions, all policy servers were able to i) 
submit their policies and ii) receive infos from other policy servers 
(if needed). There is no need for more rounds.

Good catch! InfoOffer and PolicyOffer is indeed missing in (9) and (10) 
in figure 3 and (12) and (13) in figure 4. The figures in the appendix 
had the correct flows.

I'll submit an updated version that fixes the bugs.

Thanks,
