> WebRTC browsers need to be able to send DTMF out

Why??? WebRTC is not SIP, this is not about legacy telephony. If
somebody creates a NEW RTC protocol it would not include
like-DTMF's-over-RTP anymore. DTMF is an ugly and annoying mechanism
from the past, there is no need at all to incorporate it in a new
specification (unless the only "innovation" telcos have in mind are
"calls from the Web to a PSTN IVR sytem"). DMTF's are symbols (0-9, *,
#, A-F) to be sent over the media flow. It's really ugly and just a
reminiscence from the old PSTN.

No, please, forget DTMF's. No more "SIP" nor "PSTN" in this WG.

Regards.
