It will be deprecated immediately because of the use of rfc3489  
instead of rfc5389. The guys at the IETF told me the final sip- 
outbound will change only the rfc# for STUN and everything else  
remains the same. What I find out is that the only SIP Server/Proxy  
software that supports this I would have to pay for heavy licensing  
fees and since my UAC will be open source this is a sad state of  
affairs. There is also a patch from the sip-router project for  
kamailio for sip-outbound but as I said it is deprecated.

Surely UAC's aren't relying on TCP to keep the signaling path across  
the board? What about UAC's on satellite uplinks where the latency  
breaks TCP? I like kamailio because it can scale, but otherwise it  
lacks core features that aren't scriptable like this. :(
