I've modified my copy of the transport draft as follows:

   ICE TCP candidates, either using TURN [RFC6062] or not [RFC6544] MAY
   be supported; this may allow applications to achieve peer-to-peer
   communication across UDP-blocking firewalls.

   NOTE IN DRAFT: The profile used is RTP/SAVPF.  RFC 4571 registers the
   profile "TCP/RTP/AVP", but there's no registration for "TCP/RTP/
   SAVPF", which corresponds to the RTP/SAVPF profile recommended
   elsewhere in the RTCWEB specifications.  RFC 6544 shows examples both
   with and without the TCP/ prefix.  Should we suggest that in general,
   the prefix should not be used?  If the prefix should be used, TCP/
   RTP/SAVPF needs to be registered.

I must admit that I don't follow the logic behind RTP profile names in
SDP these days; they seem to vaccilate between transport protocol and no
transport protocol.
I think I prefer "no transport protocol", keeping the profile name
constant across different transports, but this is probably a subject
that either rtp-usage or jsep needs to tackle explicitly.

            Harald
