Hi Harald, is that really *decided*? I will ask the same question in a
different way:

If I have a SIP phone implementing ICE and DTLS-SRTP (which is
standarized for SIP regardless it has null impementation), will my SIP
phone be able to *directly* talk in the media plane with a WebRTC
browser? or not?

And also, what does it mean a "non-gateway"? Gateways are not
specified, they are custom boxes implementing some kind of protocol
translation. The only way in which it can be said that "there is not
non-gateway legacy interop" is by making WebRTC *explicitly*
non-compliant with any other existing device (for example by requiring
some annoying a=ensureWebRTC line in the SDP, in this way you can be
sure that WebRTC entities will interop with nobody but with specific
"gateways" that know the trick).


Thanks a lot.
