Keith;

 I just looked at outbound and gruu again, and AFAICT temp-gruu doesn't
carry the instance-id unlike the pub-gruu which does.

 With outbound the instance-id is only present in the REGISTER
request when you are establishing the flow, and if temp-gruu is used,
the only time instance-id will be visible when GRUU is used is also
in the REGISTER request.

 I may be blind but I can't seem to see the problem.

 Regards
  Shida

There is a similar issue with the instance-id as used by outbound and GRUU as well. In a mobile, this uses the IMEI which is not necessarily meant to be revealed.

3GPP obfuscate the IMEI on generation of the GRUU.

Just a minor point:  Is it worth adding (either in section
4.1 or 6) that a temp-gruu might not be as anonymous as you
might hope?  An observer using RFC 3680 (reg-event) with gruu
extensions would be able to correlate temp-gruus with AoRs
and contacts, should they be so authorised.

There is some text in RFC 3680 warning of the risks of
reg-event, but that is probably of more direct interest to
registrar authors.  A reminder of the risk in this document
might highlight it for UA authors, so that they can consider
the wider implications.

Best regards,

Michael
