To be honest I fail to see the real benefit here. MSRP is p2p and may need a MSRP relay,
but what an Asterisk should do in an MSRP call beats me. Like with XMPP, we can start
chat bots, but that hasn't really happened during all the years we've had XMPP support.

There are better MSRP relays than Asterisk can possibly be out there.

I must be missing something important in your thinking Gunnar - so please tell me!
