Hi all,

I just ran into this document recently and I am wondering (in light of the recent discussions) whether this is a good document to publish:

 Securing the RTP Protocol Framework: Why RTP Does Not Mandate a Single
                        Media Security Solution
                draft-ietf-avt-srtp-not-mandatory-13.txt

Abstract

   This memo discusses the problem of securing real-time multimedia
   sessions, and explains why the Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP),
   and the associated RTP control protocol (RTCP), do not mandate a
   single media security mechanism.  Guidelines for designers and
   reviewers of future RTP extensions are provided, to ensure that
   appropriate security mechanisms are mandated, and that any such
   mechanisms are specified in a manner that conforms with the RTP
   architecture.

I am wondering whether we do ourselves a favor with trying to justify the situation and whether there is a chance to fix the problem, at least on the specification side.

Ciao
Hannes
