It seems to me that making both VP8 and H264 MTI might be a good option for WebRTC in terms of maximizing interoperability and would be a better decision coming out of this IETF meeting than no decision at all.

Can we have some clarification as to whether any consensus call during this week's meeting will include this option?

Previously it was stated that the questions to be asked would be:

1. If you support H.264 as the mandatory to implement codec or are
willing to live with it as the MTI, please raise your hand now.

2. If you support VP8 as the mandatory to implement codec or are
willing to live with it as the MTI, please raise your hand now.


How would we conclude that the community would like both to be made MTI?

Andy
