All these advanced features will probably be used by a handful of companies/developers. I would rather see something simple, xml based that is more compatible with the web than SDP.

> there is no need for interoperability, there is no need for SIP, Jingle, etc. At the minimum, this would require a simple service for ip address lookup and to aid NAT and firewall traversal.
> For example, when a user registers with this service, he/she is assigned an identifier or blob. In order to communicate with another party, all they need to do is to exchange this information (this can be done using websocket, etc.) and setup media channel. There should be no need for parsing SDP, etc.


...and when you need more features (like adding video within an existing audio session, or putting the session on hold, or negotiating codecs and encryption parameters) you will realize that you are reinventing SDP.
