[rtcweb] RTCWEB Session 2: A plea for brevity

I respectfully submit that the allocating the entire 150 minute session to the video codec MTI isssue is not the best use of the WG's time.   

Do we really  have to allocate 20 minutes to *each* draft?  Since 3 of 
the presentations are favoring H.264 and only one is pushing VP8, the 
fairness of this approach is questionable, and since brevity is the soul
 of wit (and argument), I believe that each side could probably do the 
job in 20 minutes max, including example videos.   

If we spend, 40 minutes on presentations, 30 minutes on discussion and 20 minutes on the combination of consensus and next steps, then that would leave an hour for other important issues, such as the way forward on SDP.
