We’ve discussed it a number of times both here and on the SIP Forum techwg mailing list. You can find summaries here:

http://www.slideshare.net/oej/sip-half-outbound-random-notes
http://www.slideshare.net/oej/sip-tls-security-in-a-peer-to-peer-world

In short, without SIP Outbound the client connection can’t be re-used for outbound requests. Seems like there is a huge
resistance to implement SIP Outbound. We need a way for the client to allow the server to reuse the inbound connection
for outbound requests even though there’s no TLS certificate matching the URI on the client side.

We’ve had a lot of clients register with “;transport=tls” at SIPit without a client cert - which means we can’t communicate
based on that registration.

There may/may not be an immediate need to tweak/change things to make DTLS related processing (hopefully just on the local stack level rather than on on-the-wire protocol- with some supporting SIP enhancements) more “failover friendly”. This issue requires more analysis/discussion but does not sound unsolvable IMHO.

For example, I would like to see some input on WHY to do it, and HOW it is intended to be deployed etc. How does DTLS fit SIP? What are the advantages? OR, do we want to specify DTLS-for-SIP simply because DTLS is “hot”?

> Now that we have our new charter approved, I'd like the working group to have a discussion about the specific work items that we should take on in the short- to medium-term so that we can revise our milestones appropriately. Based on recent discussions on the mailing list, the following topics have some mind-share behind them. What I'd like from everyone with an interest in any of these topics is to indicate (a) whether you are willing to actively review and comment on documents on the topic; and (b) what priority each task has relative to each other: there are five topics; please indicate a unique priority from one (most important) to five (least important) for each topic.
