Getting better.

My position on this is well known - presumably the issue refers to my 
arguments. So I won't repeat them here.

*If* we can agree that associating packets to m-lines is a MUST, then 
the two paragraphs above the open issue can be collapsed into one. (If 
you can associate to an m-line, then of course you can associate to the 
protocol described by the m-line.

Something special must be said about STUN, because it is indeed an 
exception to my point about associating to an m-line. It is also an 
exception to associating to a protocol mentioned in m-lines.

What is complex here is that we are dealing with layered protocols, but 
SDP syntax pretends they are not. To address this fully, I think it is 
necessary to identify the protocol *stack* for each m-line, and then 
figure out which of those layers are shared by multiple m-lines. STUN is 
a middle layer in the stack, presumably shared by all the m-lines.

	Thanks,
	Paul
