[BA] Given the discussion of IETF 81, my concern is that the API is based on an SDP and ICE profile that is implicit and not explicit. In a number of cases, it would appear that this implicit profile may ignore normative requirements (including MUSTs) in RFC 3264, 5245 and other relevant RFCs. The danger in continuing down that road is that different implementations will make different assumptions about the profile, and the result will be implementations that are not only incompatible with each other, but also with existing implementations of the wire protocols.
