I believe that the problem statement (and associated use cases) that John presented in the WG session are valid. I think it was unfortunate that those use cases couldn't be discussed more in the WG session. This email appears to me simply John trying to further the discussions to bring out arguments.
One particular note I would like to share - given a comment at the mic regarding 4474 working as designed and desired - is that there are situations (good, bad or indifferent) that necessitate changes in the SDP. John cited media steering as a use case. Another use case is media steering for transcoding. Use case below: Ent A--->SSP1--->Ent B In this use case, Ent A and SSP1 have established certain "rules of engagement", like G729, 2833, t.38, etc. Ent B and SSP1 have established their own "rules of engagement", for instance G711 for voice, inband DTMF/FAX, etc. Being there's no common denominator for the media, the SDP in INVITE "steers" to a device that can trancode. Another use case, would be for those SSPs that have Lawful Intercept requirements. Steering the media to something that will can intercept should that be a regulatory obligation.
