<partha> In fact rtcweb client shall acts as conference un-aware client
in the conference model and game server acts as conference server. I
have worked in 3-party conference using SIP in the endpoint but I have
never seen endpoint acts as conference server. So, I may be missing
something here </partha>

<partha>The disadvantage with JS is that each server has to provide its
own instance of JS library. It may be possible to have plugin instead of
JS but it will defeat the purpose of RTCWeb charter. </partha>
