Folks:

Tolga is right.

We have a very complex problem to solve. It is called negotiations between different types of codecs and between different features of each codec type.

Let us see how simple a protocol can be based on these simple requirements.

Yes, something "simple" would be nice but the definition of "simple enough but still allowing me to do what I want to achieve" is very much dependent on the needs of each specific use case/service. There is no universal definition of "simple" here. So, I guess this is yet another argument in favor of not standardizing the protocol between browser and webserver so that everybody can design/use whatever is "simple but good enough" from their perspective.

Thanks,
Tolga
