WG, There has been a number of posts that makes arguments based on federation and the federation protocol. This is the protocol used between the webservers, called "Signalling path" in the trappzoid picture (from draft-ietf-rtcweb-overview-02) below: +-----------+ +-----------+ | Web | | Web | | | Signalling | | | |-------------| | | Server | path | Server | | | | | +-----------+ +-----------+ / \ / \ Proprietary over / \ HTTP/Websockets / \ / Proprietary over \ / HTTP/Websockets \ / \ +-----------+ +-----------+ |JS/HTML/CSS| |JS/HTML/CSS| +-----------+ +-----------+ +-----------+ +-----------+ | | | | | | | | | Browser | ------------------------- | Browser | | | Media path | | | | | | +-----------+ +-----------+ Figure 2: Browser RTC Trapezoid Please consider that the current WG consensus is well captured in the overview draft: If the two Web servers are operated by different entities, the signalling path needs to be agreed upon, either by standardization or by other means of agreement; for example, both servers might implement SIP, and the servers would talk SIP to each other, and each would translate between the SIP protocol and their proprietary representation for sending to their application running in the browser. This part is outside the scope of the RTCWEB standars suite. So, it may be SIP, it doesn't need to be SIP. The important from the WG's perspective is that is a possible deployment model we intended to support. It is not the only deployment model. We don't define what is used on the signalling path and there is freedom here. Please consider that when writing arguments so that you don't misrepresent the current WG consensus or ignore the set of possibilities that currently are considered. If you don't like the WG consensus, then suggest to change it and see if you get support for it.
