If, for whatever reason, the Answerer does not/cannot choose the first in the list, it shall try the next in the list, etc.



But, that only becomes an issue when the BUNDLE address has yet not been negotiated - or when one tries to re-negotiate it (discussed below).

...assuming we don't also want to re-negotiate the BUNDLE address with the POF, in which case the POF might contain that new address.



But, as we discussed earlier, and as you also indicated at the end of your e-mail, maybe using POF for transport re-negotiation is something we can disallow.

I need to think about it, but nothing comes to my mind at the moment.



And, if both endpoints add a new m- line to the BUNDLE group at the same time, I guess the order in which they mids are appended to the list could be based on the order in which the m- lines themselves are added to the SDP state.

I agree.
