Hi,

I would assume that the text should say "update to a previously applied "pranswer".

Regards,

Christer

draft-ietf-rtcweb-jsep-05 -----Section 4.1.3 says:

"pranswer" indicates that a description should be parsed as an

   transmission, if the answer does not specify an inactive media

How can a pranswer be applied as an update to a previously sent answer?  I am not sure what's the corresponding scenario.

My two cents: May be it needs more description or correction here.

This makes sense, and is consistent with the state diagrams, if the last "answer" is changed to "pranswer".

Justin, is this an error in the draft?
