I don't see a way for 2 parties to communicate without help from outside the browser, thus, I wouldn't define any sort of protocol, even if we could simplify one. The purpose of including a protocol (which is optional to use) isn't to allow direct browser-to-browser discovery or initiation without a server. In fact, it doesn't help *or* hurt that use-case. A primary reason for including a protocol is to make it easy to build things. We don't *just* want organizations with the resources of Google or Skype or Cisco (or Mozilla) to be the ones who can make use of this new capability; we want all web developers to feel it's within their grasp. This could be satisfied in a few ways, as discussed: "baked in" simple SIP/O+A; a JS lib plus support pieces for SIP/O+A like the state machine baked in; or a pure JS implementation. But we are wary of putting it out with merely the hope that a good-enough JS lib will show up someday (and there are other pros and cons; no need to repeat them here). As far as needing external servers: there are some ideas we're floating around that would allow for server-less or virtually server-less operation of WebRTC clients including discovery and initiation, from behind NATs. We haven't speced it out or even proven it's workable yet, but we're going to look very closely at some type of proof-by-existence for this idea. -- Randell Jesup randell-ietf@jesup.org
