This is a completely different approach than PERC. THis draft aims for
simplicity and efficiency. The sdrame draft itself has some benchmarks
against the PERC approach.  That being said the sframe draft focuses mainly
on the media encryption part and touches slightly other parts in the system
like key management and integration with WebRTC. If this became a standard
we will have to write a separate draft for each of these two topics.

Yes. This will be implemented by the  video conference providers. The core
protocol implementation is on the client side.

Yes, the document is co-authored by +Sergio murillo
