I agree, and since I believe the answer is "no interop without a media gateway" (I've tried to figure a safe way, no luck unless you relax the requirements for consent and the like), then I come down on SRTP-mandatory, DTLS-SRTP strongly preferred to be mandatory unless there's an implementation roadblock. -- Randell Jesup randell-ietf@jesup.org
