Yeah, if asterisk support was the problem, no phones would have SRTP at all
now.  :-)  If Asterisk *only* supported MIKEY, then it might make a
difference to them.  But as blitzrage mentioned, if they have another path
to get the features that MIKEY provides, then I doubt they spend their
limited resources on multiple technologies that do the same thing.

But yeah, what I'm really asking is, "Can we merge the sdescriptions stuff
w/o MIKEY, since they are better tested and MIKEY isn't required to work
with *any* devices in the field now?"  We can leave the code for MIKEY up
in a branch somewhere and if someone gets around to showing it some love
(and find at least two implementations to test against) it can get merged
some day as well.  I just don't want to hold this up any longer than we
have to, if noone knows of anything that supports it, anyway.
