What I meant by saying "it's not really SIP" wasn't because I think SIP is not device<->device (on the contrary, it is)... but rather that if rtcweb uses SIP but then doesn't actually follow the rules of SIP, then it's *not* SIP.

Sorry, both comments was meant for Randell. But thank you for your response :-)

My opinion is that a limited version of SIP for rtcweb would not only be impossible to develop and keep in a limited scope, it would hurt the RTCweb process. And it's interesting to observe how many SIP oldtimers in this list that maintain that opinion...

It might be something worthwile to define in the process of trying to move SIP towards the Internet Standard goal, but that's a separate issue.
