With all due respect, seriously.

This part of why you think we need sips argument reduces to: its been
there for a long time and it hasn't been fixed it so it provides real
end-to-end security, and since there's nothing else, other draft writers
have been forced to reference it so lets just maintain the status quo.  

Again, with all due respect, I don't think this is a reasonable
argument.  The fundamental problem with sips is that its not end-to-end.
If it were end-to-end, there would be no discussion it would just be
getting implemented and used.  How long will it be before those "in
control" of the standards realize that there is a pressing need, indeed
a requirement, among the users of the standard for true end-to-end
security and put something that "they" think is OK in place to address
it?

Faithfully submitted,
Dougla... *cough*
