2014-01-30 Cullen Jennings (fluffy) <[e-mail]>:
> Iñaki's proposal to "'drop the absurd rule of SDP the answer MUST have the same number of m lines as the offer in order to match them" has so little support from anywhere that the WG is not spending time discussing that proposal. It has been discussed in the past and rejected. I would explain why it was rejected but I’m fairly sure Iñaki understand why and I view this as just moving into trolling at this point.

Hi Cullen,

I don't want to spend more time on this topic (I already tryed to
leave it) but I must answer your mail above:

1) I suggested breaking the "m lines rule" in order to resolve a real
problem/limitation of SDP O/A, and I suggested it because AFAIK the
SDP usage in WebRTC is not yet totally specified (so there could be
room for additions/changes).

2) I realized that such a change would indeed break the entire SDP O/A
model, so I accepted that it can not take place at this time (may be
never).

3) I was not trolling.


Said that, there is something I really don't like at all:

> It has been discussed in the past and rejected

Where? When? Probably before WebRTC was born so not in this WG, right?
I don't consider fair that we cannot make questions or proposals for
SDP O/A just because somebody already said "no" to the same or a
similar proposal 7 years ago in some SIP WG or MMUSIC WG (when WebRTC
did not even exist nor its needs).

Anyhow, I don't want to reopen this topic, really.


Best regards.
