RE: [Simple] Last Call: draft-ietf-simple-msrp-acm (An Alternative Connection Model for the Message Session Relay Protocol (MSRP)) to Proposed Standard

Hi,

I am not I understand what this draft has to do with MITM attacks. This is related to which MSRP UA becomes "active", by applying COMEDIA.

ACM is a separate thing from SESSMATCH - which is the reason the WG decided to split it into two drafts in the first place (originally ACM and SESSMATCH was a single draft).

Regards,

Christer

I can not see why this draft is needed other than making MITM attacks easier. I request that this not proceed until we can figure out what is going to happen to draft-ietf-simple-msrp-sessmatch then decide if these changes to MSRP are needed or if the existing mechanism are sufficient.
