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.
