It looks like WebRTC-SIP interop without an application layer gateway would
not be possible in the near future due to all the media transport
requirements that were introduced. Given that SIP interop is no longer
possible, why do we still need PRANSWER? Since an application layer gateway
must be deployed, the same gateway can handle both serial and parallel
forking. The WebRTC application will work with the gateway to create new
streams or to create new connections, as necessary when new SIP dialogs are
created and new answers are received.
