I note that simply adding "and Identification of TLS Connections" to the end is ambiguous (since it makes it sound like it defines O/A for TLS), but you can fix this by reversing the existing title; e.g., something like: "Establishing Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS) Using the Session Description Protocol (SDP) Offer/Answer Mechanism and Identification of Transport Layer Security (TLS) Connections in SDP” >>> Wow, that’s petty cumbersome as a title—it’s pretty much an abstract.

If you can think of some shorter way to say it, that'd be great -- but if I'm perusing a list of titles for something TLS-related and come across one that mentions only DTLS, I'd skip over it.

I have no problem with that. /a _______________________________________________ mmusic mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/mmusic
