Hi Alan,

Thanks for the heads-up.

Why the server address? In XMPP clients establishing media sessions, the communicating entity is fully addressable and its server might not be involves at all. Or, the server is itself providing for the STUN/TURN service, in which case the server address might not be so useful. In short, why not the (full) JID of the client for these cases?
