This sounds to me like "SDP will be here forever because it was talked about two years ago, but let us improve it by adding some more API methods so there is no need to parse/mangle it". Just to clarify: - Some of us don't want a better API for the currently proposed SDP-based spec. - SDP must be parsed/mangled anyway if you want a JS WebRTC app that talks Jingle XEP 0167, so there is no "API improvement" that would avoid such a pain. - It's not just SDP but also the mandate of SDP O/A. What I think is that it is not well understood that SDP O/A is an artificial constrain introduced in WebRTC just because SIP phones do that ***at application level*** (so you are mandating that *any* WebRTC application in the future must play like-SIP rules and SDP O/A model, which is insane). A better and more complete API for the current spec DOES NOT avoid this artificial limitation. In short: some of us DO NOT want a better JS API for the current opaque-unmanageable-SDP-blob based "API". Period. We strongly consider it can be done really better by throwing out SDP and SDP O/A and by providing a *real* JS Objects based API. -- Iñaki Baz Castillo <ibc@aliax.net>
