My question was around whether we are voting on requiring decoders (my assumption) or both encoders and decoders My understanding is that all the proposals in each instance mean "both encoder and decoder". So as an example, a proposal of "MUST implement both VP8 and H.264" means "MUST implement both VP8 encoder and decoder, and H.264 encoder and decoder". Your question brings up other choices. For example, interoperability would be satisfied by something like "MUST implement both VP8 and H.264 decoders, and MUST implement at least one of VP8 and H.264 encoders". One condition for this to work is the possibility of asymmetric communication, i.e. if side A implemented only a VP8 encoder, and side B only implemented a H.264 encoder, then traffic A->B would be VP8, whereas traffic B->A would be H.264. I don't know the in's and out's of the negotiation and protocol machinery to confirm or deny that this is possible. Choices like the one above definitely open new horizons for Eric's selection generator. But frankly speaking, except for the specific choice of "MUST implement both VP8 and H.264 decoders, and MUST implement at least one of VP8 and H.264 encoders", which is less onerous than "MUST implement both VP8 and H.264", but still interoperable, I don't see any choices with different requirements for encoders and decoders that would make sense.

Historically mandatory requirements are they relate to video compatibility define just the decoders.
