Hi Magnus. Honestly I don't consider that discussing about
draft-ibc-rtcweb-sip-websocket-00 should take place. It's just a
suggestion about a signaling protocol in RTCweb (in this case pure SIP
over WebSocket). It's not my aim that the WG considers such spec as a
standard signaling for RTCweb. Well, this is basically the same you
have said :)

In the other said, I'd really would like that, before the meeting, all
the folks could take some time to read:

  http://public.aliax.net/RTCweb_Signaling_Components.html
and
  http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/rtcweb/current/msg02158.html

This means not wasting time if somebody proposes ROAP as a "default
signaling protocol" because ROAP is not that and cannot do that (more
info in the given links). Also, given the general confusion when the
term "signaling" appears in this WG, I've tryied to clarify its
meaning(s) in RTCweb context (first link).

For those who advocate for a "default signaling protocol", I hope
second link should make them to re-think about what such erroneous
decision would entail in current and *existing* WWW world.


Best regards.
