Speaking of nicknames. I don't understand why we need the MSRP extension
NICKNAME to reserve a nickname for a chatroom. One would think that the
nickname was reserved when the user joined the chatroom using the SIP
From header field.
The SIP From header is not suitable, because it does not guarantee that
the nickname is not already in use by someone else.
Additionally, I think we should keep using the From header in SIP as we
are currently doing, which in most cases (with the exception of
anonymous URIs), it indicates the routable SIP URI of the sender. A
nickname shouldn't be routable, so in my opinion it does not fit there.
Thanks,
