Hi Eric,

     It's my understanding that public-webrtc is for discussing the 
WebRTC API, and RTCWeb is for discussing the WebRTC wire protocol.

     Three weeks ago I posted a summary of discussion points that came 
up in the WebRTC World conference (most of which had to do with the 
WebRTC API). To date, I have not received a reply from any of the people 
you have listed. I am unable to gather the necessary momentum to turn 
these points into action items without your help. I was/am frustrated 
that the spec editors and vendors are responsible to engage the 
community on these matters, but did not. I hope this clarifies what I meant.

     On a side-note, I do not view the SDP discussion as a response to 
my post. This discussion was well under-way beforehand and only made up 
one of the seven points I brought up. I would appreciate it if multiple 
stakeholders would address each of the points I brought up.

     That's fine. I don't mind moving all API discussion to this list, 
so long as they actually reply this time.

Thank you,
Gili
