First, the draft is not about SIP vs XMPP vs xy. All those protocols try to be general and necessarily suffer from feature creep and complexity. SIP once started as a much simpler alternative to H.323 and look where we are now. XMPP has defined more than 300 extensions. But I think there is not much disagreement about the call signaling part. The question is if we can get rid of SDP as well. If both sides *implicitly* know what codec parameters they are going to use there is no longer the need to negotiate them. If caller and callee use the same RTCWEB client this should be doable. The RTCWEB server may need some hints about the browsers capabilities -- eg does it support a camera, is the bandwidth limited -- to provide it with an applicable RTCWEB client. But we don't need a way to convey and negotiate dozens of codec parameters. If we insist on interoperability between RTCWEB client A and RTCWEB client B we will end up re-inventing SDP and/or SIP. And of course we will have to keep RTCWEB and SDP standardization in sync. Wolfgang
