Re: [dispatch] [rtcweb] Datachannel Hackathon at IETF 101 ?

Hi Christer,

While I totally agree that it would be awesome to find killer apps for data channels I don’t think an IETF Hackathon is a) the place to find new killer aps and b) creating something at an IETF Hackathon requires an app idea to exist already.

It was my understanding	that Mr. Panton was proposing to solve the chicken and egg problem of people complaining that creating data channel apps (outside of browsers) is too complicated by hacking together an easily integratabtle data channel lib. I would totally be up to participate in that.

Once we have such a lib we and other then can start playing around and maybe until the next IETF we will have “some cool killer apps”.

Best
