I guess what I'm saying is... if all is well, then what's going on with 
Microsoft and Apple? What's their official position regarding MTI? Will 
it impact their intent to bundle WebRTC in their browsers? If we truly 
have an open process and representatives from Microsoft and Apple 
sitting on the WG then I would expect to get official answers to these 
questions.

I've seen multiple representatives from Microsoft, but not a single 
person from Apple. Is anyone representing them in an official capacity?
