Section 2 contains the following text:

"Since a gateway is expected to be deployed where it can be reached with a static IP address (as seen from the client), a WebRTC gateway does not need to support full ICE; it therefore MAY implement ICE-Lite only".

It might be a minor comment but I think it is wrong to say that a gateway "is expected to be deployed where it can be reached with a static IP address" and this gives the wrong impression.

A gateway might be deployed in such a way but I would not say it is expected to be deployed that way.

So I suggest the following text.

"A WebRTC gateway which is deployed where it can be reached with a static IP address (as seen from the client), does not need to support full ICE; it therefore MAY implement ICE-Lite only".
