yesterday's war = don't bring up that operators are having a real problem with UDP, and that operators have and will continue to block it? Because, i think that is what this thread is about. i did bring yesterday's war to the IETF RTCWweb group and got the expected answer My concern: https://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/rtcweb/current/msg11425.html Summary IETF response: The problem i described is already solved by bcp38, nothing to see here, carry on with UDP https://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/rtcweb/current/msg11477.html CB
