[asterisk-dev] SRTP branch update

[Terry Wilson]

I've spent the last few days getting the SRTP branch (now located at http://svn.digium.com/svn/asterisk/team/group/srtp) 
  up to date with trunk, cleaning up the code, fixing coding  
guidelines issues, etc.  I've gone through everything except a couple  
of files relating to the MIKEY support.  Some of the MIKEY code (res/ 
mikey.cc for instance) still has a lot of debugging code in it that  
outputs to stdout/stderr, doesn't use any of the Asterisk helper  
functions which are available, not to mention it relies on libraries  
which no distros that I'm aware of distribute.  Also, it looks to be  
unfinished, with several "todo" items listed.  This all brings me to  
asterisk-dev to ask the following questions:

1) Does anyone know of any  phones other than the minisip softphone  
that actually support MIKEY?

2) Has anyone tested out the asterisk SRTP code w/ MIKEY against some  
of those phones so we know that the code is correct?

3) Since Asterisk now has TCP/TLS support in chan_sip, is there any  
benefit to using MIKEY over using sdescriptions?

4) Should we keep and support the MIKEY code?

I appreciate everyone's input on this as I would like to finally get  
this code on the way to being merged into trunk!
