I never thought that the goal of this group is to promote other architectural agendas, even the ones as such as spreading communications security. Security of communications would be defined by the application developer. If application developer designs something that is meant to be insecure (like place all calls through a middle server that will record everything and publish it on an open web site), it would be. I do not understand why application developer with WebRTC should not have an option to communicate without SRTP. Ability for developer to specify that RTP is allowed for certain connection takes nothing from security of WebRTC, and makes a lot of issues (such as interop, getting initial application developed and tested, etc) a lot simpler. I do believe that SRTP CPU load argument is nonsense (especially with newer CPUs where there is hardware AES offload), but I the only argument I heard so far for mandatory SRTP use was that future WebRTC developers are so incompetent and ignorant that they will never use SRTP unless we force them. Make it simple to specify that SRTP is required via an API, make it default, and developers will use it. As long as WebRTC connection does not automatically fall back to RTP if SRTP connection is required and cannot be established, I simply don't see what the problem is. _____________ Roman Shpount
