[changed the title since we drifted a bit away from the original
question] 

I am trying to figure out where the problems are: 

The SIPit 21 report 
http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/sip/current/msg21291.html
indicated that SIP Identity was available with 12% of the
implementations. (Not sure what that actually means since one would have
to look at the details.)

The SIPit 22 report 
http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/sip/current/msg23285.html
says 16% identity (But there were no Identity servers at the event)

Maybe this means that nobody showed up that has implemented the
Authentication Service but I hope that someone has implemented it
somewhere. 

~15 % is not a large number; but it's a start. 

Now, it would be interesting to hear whether these guys have actually
ever turned it on and used it. What was their experience? Did they
indeed encounter problems with certain SBC configurations? 

Would more folks use it when some of the weaknesses on the E.164 number
usage are documented?

Would more folks use it when combined with DTLS-SRTP (as proposed in two
documents)?

How would a change to the signature algorithm impact the situation?

Ciao
Hannes
