Then A would refuse 7,8 and start another offer with 7,8 as a separate bundle. This is less efficient in this case, but makes fewer assumptions about the capabilities of A. This seems like a bad choice. I only bring it up because past experience with O/A has shown that it is generally better for an offerer to say what they want without making value judgements about the other party. It becomes especially important if it turns out that the party you are sending the offer to turns out to be different from the one you talked to last. (That probably is nonsense here if these O/A cycles are back-to-back.) In all of the above, the behavior of B only makes sense if B feels it *needs* all of these streams. Another possibility is that B simply rejects the streams it can't accept when bundled as proposed, but doesn't initiate another O/A cycle. Then if A feels those are important, *it* can send another offer with them separately bundled. Having both as options makes things complicated. It could result in both sides waiting for the other to act. And having A make the second offer becomes a sort of "fetch a rock" exercise. But having B make the second offer means it may need to take on faith "I don't know if these streams are important, but my peer wanted them so I'll try to establish them." These cases requiring multiple O/A cycles to get things arranged as desired are starting to smell to me like the kinds of situations that preconditions were designed for. Perhaps a new "bundle" precondition would provide a way to sort out responsibilities and realize when to keep trying and when to give up. But many consider preconditions too heavy weight to use in practice. And they could prove difficult in JSEP. > But if either side initiates a re-offer for some other reason, the new > offer should be the biggest bundling the offerer is willing to > support. You mean, in the above case, after having agreed on bundles 1,2 ; 3/4 ; 5/6 ; 7,8 if B decides it wants to add another stream 9 it should offer 1,2,5,6 ; 3,4,7,8,9 ??? I *think* the new offer should include the new bundles in their current operational form, with only one address/port per bundle. Doing otherwise would disrupt the functioning of the current streams. Stream 9 could be added to one of the existing bundles in the offer, but should have a separate address/port. That will probably break a scenario that is trying to do a 3pcc transfer. I suspect that doing such a thing with bundled streams is going to be *hard*, and will need to be considered separately. Thanks, Paul
