The charter discusses using the most up to date media plane recommendations, which are the WebRTC recommendations, including DTLS-SRTP, and we will require TLS in the signaling plane.   As these are UAs, and not proxy servers, the usual security mechanisms for registration will be required.  We certainly don’t plan to innovate other than exploring the issues raised of explicit man-in-the-middle, but we will require all implementations to maintain current best practice on security mechanisms.  We’ll craft some language to include in the charter.
