And how do you expect intermediaries to understand that, when the ports are zero?

And, even if we don't consider intermediaries, I think it's BAD DESIGN to assume that we use a stream, and associated data, from m- lines with port zero. Port zero means that the stream associated with the m- line is DISABLED.

I think that's very hacky, moving information from one m- line to another...

I don't think we should have a solution where the answerer is not allowed to reject an m- line.

What if you have a session where a stream is enabled/disabled many times. If, every time you re-enable, is going to add a new m- line, you may end up with a very large SDP...

>This isn't particularly elegant, but it applies the definition consistently and I think it works in all cases.

I think it's very hacky, and I don't see how you think that intermediaries (which your draft focues on) would be able to handle this...

Christer
