The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Transports for WebRTC' (draft-ietf-rtcweb-transports-17.txt) as Proposed Standard This document is the product of the Real-Time Communication in WEB-browsers Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Alexey Melnikov, Ben Campbell and Alissa Cooper. A URL of this Internet Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-rtcweb-transports/ Technical Summary This document describes the data transport protocols used by WebRTC, including the protocols used for interaction with intermediate boxes such as firewalls, relays and NAT boxes. Working Group Summary Nothing particularly controversial in this spec. It is largely just a pointer to other specifications saying if you do WebRTC, then you need to what RFC X,Y, and Z says. Based on the WGLC comments, the chairs suggest adding an RFC Ed note to include an informative reference to draft-ietf-rtcweb-return however there is not WG consensus to make this a MUST or SHOULD implement. (Cleary nothing forbids implementing it so it is already an MAY implement) Document Quality Much of this is implemented in chrome and firefox which share a significant amount of code with respect to this so some parts of it has 2 implementations, some parts 1, and some none. Personnel Cullen Jennings is the document shepherd. Alissa Cooper is the responsible AD.
