well, on the other hand is not bad. You would have been probably
unemployed (or in other business) now if the SIP would have been simple.
I am thinking of SIP as developer's heaven -- never run out of new tasks.
It is an amazing business/money flow environment:
- voip/++ services
- developing
- teaching
- conformance testing
- rfc writing
- and you can still add...

ICE came too late, the are millions of end user
devices sold out there,
without it. And as "workarounds" are in place, nobody will invest now
(crisis :-) ?!?!) to replace them -- only the time will obsolete them.
So we still have to stick to the solutions we have now.
The good point of ICE is that it works end to end, so you can have a
proxy that fixes NAT when needed ("Contact" or SDP with private IP).
ICE will solve it in client side, as STUN, so proxy doesn't need to
solve NAT in that case. Both methods can live together and this is
cool since allows ICE implementation.
