Other examples (in a slightly different variant) are part of the Ericsson demo. Well, to be fair, the Ericsson code has this at the top of the main HTML page's script: <script type="text/javascript" src="signaling.js"></script> And that separate JS is another ~100 lines of code. And that "signaling" code doesn't appear to actually handle the rendezvous function of signaling - you have to email the other party a cookified URL to reach you at for the particular session. (I think) And it doesn't appear to handle terminating a session (other than by closing the browser window). But then, it's just a demo. [note: I'm not disparaging the demo - it's a cool demo] > What's perhaps more important is that none of those 20+ lines mention anything about codecs, bit rates, congestion control or any of the numerous other issues we've been hashing out. Right, nor should they - the browsers should do that stuff internally, and only if the JS actually wants/needs to get involved somehow should it need to (through callbacks/whatever). No one's been saying the JS needs to be responsible for codecs, bit rates, congestion control, or anything much media related. We've only been arguing about: 1) Using SDP and the SDP offer/answer as the media API 2) Whether there should be a "default" signaling component built in as well, or let JS libraries handle it > With the API we support, simple things MUST be simple. Complex things must be possible. Yes, it should be "as simple as it can be, but no simpler". The tricky part's always figuring out what that means. :) Why isn't this simple enough: <script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/sigpipe/1.0/sigpipe.min.js"></script> -hadriel
