Hi Colin,

The (S)RTP notion goes back to a comment from Magnus. If I remember it correctly he considers
SRTP a profile of RTP. Since I don't wanted to just use RTP, I ended up with (S)RTP based
on a discussion with Magnus.

However, I'm fine with changing it to SRTP...

Magnus: Any comment?

Best regards
Michael
