I am really confused here: Are we reinventing the wheel? Why add this entropy? STUN is there, well thought out, coded and strongly tested, though maybe a bit complex. If we (improve and) accept this XEP, then what CAN/SHOULD/MUST clients and/or servers implement then? STUN and/or SIC? -- Nicolas Vérité - ProcessOne http://process-one.net Mobile: +33 6 20 88 63 04
