Hi all

to keep the re-charter discussion brief could we perhaps split the
discussion into (1) where media transport aspects should be discussed
and (2) what the transport actually is.

For (1), I'd like to keep it inside the peer protocol spec, as mentioned 
before.

For (2): The RTCWEB work is definitely relevant, so thanks for keeping 
us up-to-date, Yunfei. There are of course differences, notably PPSP is 
also about time-shifted streaming, i.e. video-on-demand. This means 
real-time is not always relevant and we also need to think about 
post-view seeding. The latter makes LEDBAT support important.
Furthermore, sender authentication and privacy may be less important for 
us than in the RTCWEB teleconferencing scenarios.
Also PPSP is more about one-to-many than RTCWEB, although they may be
looking at that too.

I think we should definitely advocate our work in RTCWEB, but in Canada 
they weren't ready for P2P scenarios yet, and I haven't followed their 
progress since.

CU,
