[rtcweb] Where to specify ICE usage and the common transport

[Magnus Westerlund <[e-mail]>]

WG,

We chairs have identified that we currently we are missing specification
text for one of the key components of RTCWEB. This component is how
WebRTC uses ICE and defines the datagram transport that both the
DTLS/SCTP data channel uses and the RTP session.

Such a specification would most likely contain the following:

- How ICE is used in the WebRTC context
- Inclusion of STUN, TURN, TURN-TCP
- Inclusion of any defined "HTTP fallback"
- Description of the data transport in general and specifically how one
  can separate the traffic from the data channel and RTP session.
- Requirements on the signalling and API and what configuration data is
  needed.

My personal view is that this is best served by having its own
specification. Alternatives that exist is to include it either in the
data channel or RTP usage specifications.

Thus we chairs would appreciate feedback on at least two things:

- Is specifying this in its own specification the most suitable approach

- Do we have any volunteers for writing such a specification?

Cheers

Magnus Westerlund
