I fear that voting will result in a decision that won’t be honored by a significant part of the population. We don’t need just a mandate, we want the effect of an effective mandate. Same opinion here. IMO, it's very unlikely that only such voting will have proper effectiveness and, more important, fairness. No matter jabber/blue-sheets persons are allowed to vote or not, there was a lot of activity on the mailing lists only from lobbyists. That said, it is going to be a lot of influence from companies that bet on 'send many and speak loud'. But there were many entities that preferred to speak with a single and clear voice so far, not involving an army of email bots. Just dismissing everyone (people/companies/projects) that simply relied on the usual 'consensus' policy, which doesn't require to step in front unless the decision is likely to be what one doesn't want, does not look fair at all. Many spent lot of time in actually doing work/implementing webrtc specs so far. As highlighted before, the issue now is about selecting the voters. For example, I see no reason not to allow anyone that was subscribed to any webrtc mailing lists hosted by IETF and W3C - it is an indication of interest more that many people that go at IEFT for touristic reasons. Those that didn't actively participated in discussions so far on mailing lists, they should eventually prove their involvement in other related activities, with public references, such as: - implemented webrtc releated specs in an application or product - they participated to webrtc interop events - they presented on webrtc topic at some conferences out there - they wrote related IETF drafts Probably the list can continue with other activities ... but is clear that the range of people interested in the topic is way larger. The process of deciding who can vote might create a bigger issue than deciding for vp8 or h264 (or other codec) with a flipping coin.
