Hi,

Sure. My issue was about the RFC 3264 claim. It's one of the "relaxes" we would have to specify ourselves.

> Note that it is not clear how the current API could be used to cancel an offer.  Various suggestions include passing a null offer or by setting the local (or remote?) description to a previous offer.

I assume that setting the description to a previous offer, from an API perspective, is the same as updating the offer with something new.
