Related to use-case 4.2.7 "Simple Video Communication Service with 
sharing" 
(<http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-rtcweb-use-cases-and-requirements/?include_text=1>) 
we had a student experimenting a bit.

Essentially, the screen was treated as another video source (just as a 
camera), and was transmitted to the other end as a MediaStream over a 
PeerConnection.

The implementation of getUserMedia allowed the screen to be selected as 
a video source.

Perhaps this could be a way forward for meeting this use-case? And 
perhaps "screen" should be defined as a valid options argument to 
getUserMedia?

(there is some more info about what the student did at 
<https://labs.ericsson.com/developer-community/blog/screen-sharing>)

Hi Stefan,

Video sucks for screen sharing, displaying documents or even plain bullet
slides.
Displaying the screen and documents is in a completely other league IMO.

Thanks, Henry

It works pretty well for us in Hangouts, and we'd like to continue to
support this functionality in WebRTC, so I think this area is definitely
something this group should explore.

getUserMedia("screen") seems like a good API to start with; it already
needs to pop up a chooser dialog, and it has a mechanism to handling
success or failure.

As the demo indicates, there are many types of "screens" that the user
could be prompted to share:
- The entire desktop
- Individual windows on the desktop
- Windows owned by the browser
- Specific tabs within the browser
- A user-selectable onscreen region

The exact details can be browser-specific, but we'll need to give some
guidance here so that applications can have a consistent experience across
browsers.

It can suck, for sure, depending on resolution.  If you change the 
encoding characteristics to be appropriate for a screen, it can be much 
better.

We used to deliver Internet-over-Cable-Settops (at WorldGate), using 
MPEG-2 p-frames and Xvfb with damage regions.  The trick it to not run 
steady video-like frame rates in CBR or near-CBR, but to instead adapt 
the codec to the source material - run highly variable framerates in 
partial VBR, and allow some initial fuzziness on a large changes to 
sharpen in subsequent frames (and maybe delay the first frame of a large 
change and use more bits for it), then stop updates if the source is 
static.  Also you'd probably want to use a heuristic or other mechanism 
to detect sharing a window with video or animation in it and shift 
encoding modes to a video-centric mode.  And obviously use as large a 
resolution as is useful at the other end, if the bandwidth supports it. 
  And never, ever send an iframe unless needed. :-)

(Note: I wasn't the video expert on this; I handled the browser side.)

Screen sharing works great over H.264 or VP8 for us. You have to tweak the
codec encoding parameters and FPS a bit, but you get great quality even on
text.

Can remote meeting attendees read the print on say a legal document under
discussion?

If yes for commercial grade quality (I still have doubts), how is the codec
tweaking enabled via the API?

Thanks, Henry

All I can say is that in the little testing we did it looks quite OK. If 
you want to you can test our using our lib; depending on what GStreamer 
plug-ins you add Theora (no plug-in added), VP8 or H.264 would be used.

But probably Aron's/Justin's experiences are more valid as those are 
based on live services if I understand correctly.

My conclusion is that using video for screen sharing can be a quick way 
forward.

I proposed that a "screen" option could be added to the API (now "audio" 
and "video" is there). If "screen" is selected, the codec parameters 
could be tweaked accordingly (we have no tweaking in our current lib though)

FWIW, that's how we've been doing desktop sharing in Jitsi for quite a
while now and the feedback is quite positive. Quality more than
satisfactory and bandwidth is way better than what you get with things
like VNC.

I guess I didn't respond to this, but what Harald said is a good
summary. There are certainly still interlaced display devices in
active use. For example, the screen in our video conferencing room
only does 1080i, not 1080p, but the issue is more going the other
direction.

There are reasons to produce interlaced content still; for high-motion
sources (like sport) the additional temporal resolution can give a
better experience without the (mostly unsupported) overhead of 60p.
That said, interlaced media support shouldn't be a requirement for
this draft.

Though it was very tight, the doodle poll results have come in supporting
an interim meeting January 31st to February 1st, 2012, in San Jose.   The
presumption at the moment is that we will start at 9:00 or so Janurary 31st
and run as the IETF WG until noon of February 1st, with a half day meeting
of the W3C group at the end.  Agenda time slots and logistical details will
be forthcoming soon.

I'm guessing there will be some sort of break around 5:00PM or so on the 
31st and resumption at 9:00AM on the 1st, otherwise we're all going to 
be pretty tired on the second day :-)

I believe there is a lot of IPR on interlaced coding, which should also be
taken into account.

It is quite easy to convert 30p to 60i for display.

On the other hand, turning 60i to 30p for progressive PC displays is
certainly possible, but most software PC players do a very poor job of it.
Interlaced coding and deinterlacing both carry a delay penalty.

So I think interlaced media should be a non-requirement for RTCWEB.

BTW, ESPN uses 720p60 instead of 1080i60 in order to get better motion
handling, so I am puzzled by the (mostly unsupported) comment.

Sure, but you should understand that the drinking during the break will be
IETF-style.  That's important, as it tells the IPv6 geeks that they need to
bring whiskey, and the rest of us to plan for beer.

         I-D Tag:    draft-ietf-hybi-thewebsocketprotocol-17.txt

         URL:        http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc6455.txt

The WebSocket Protocol enables two-way communication between a client
running untrusted code in a controlled environment to a remote host
that has opted-in to communications from that code.  The security
model used for this is the origin-based security model commonly used
by web browsers.  The protocol consists of an opening handshake
followed by basic message framing, layered over TCP.  The goal of
this technology is to provide a mechanism for browser-based
applications that need two-way communication with servers that does
not rely on opening multiple HTTP connections (e.g., using
XMLHttpRequest or<iframe>s and long polling).  [STANDARDS-TRACK]

This document is a product of the BiDirectional or Server-Initiated HTTP Working Group of the IETF.

This is now a Proposed Standard Protocol.

STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet standards track
protocol for the Internet community,and requests discussion and suggestions
for improvements.  Please refer to the current edition of the Internet
Official Protocol Standards (STD 1) for the standardization state and
status of this protocol.  Distribution of this memo is unlimited.

This announcement is sent to the IETF-Announce and rfc-dist lists.

Cary:

I have not seen a specific follow up text, but video codec requirements 
section appears overtaken by events and should be changed.

Here is proposed text that will hopefully reflect consensus spirit:

...
3.2. Video Codec Requirements
If the MPEG-LA issues an intent to offer H.264 baseline profile on a 
royalty free basis for use in browsers before March 15, 2012, then the 
REQUIRED video codecs will be H.264 baseline. If this does not happen by 
that the date, then the REQUIRED video codec will be VP8 [I-D.webm].

The REQUIRED video codec will be a royalty-free codec which has been 
specified by a recognized standards process such as MPEG or other 
due-process standards group and provide reviewable substantiation of its 
royalty-free status.

After further review, I think I get your point, my apologies if I caused 
any confusion.

What I meant to say was that I believe we have captured areas where we 
have consensus in the draft.  Obviously at this time there is no 
consensus as to which audio/video codecs will be mandatory to implement 
yet.     To be clear here, in the draft we put in a proposal for a 
mandatory to implement codec and we should have qualified it as an open 
issue, where we have no consensus.

Stephan, if you or anyone else, has a proposal as to what to add to the 
list, we would be more than happy to add it to the document and 
correctly label the areas where we have no consensus in an attempt to 
facilitate the discussion.

Regards,

-Cary

Good points Stephan.

I agree that more discussion is needed and all I am proposing here is a 
document to capture the groups collective thinking.  I will defer to the 
chairs to decide on timing.

Hi Cary, WG,

Cary, how did you come to your conclusion that the WG has achieved 
consensus on a subject like this:

    If the MPEG-LA issues an intent to offer H.264 baseline profile on a

    royalty free basis for use in browsers before March 15, 2012, then

    the REQUIRED video codecs will be H.264 baseline.  If this does not

    happen by that the date, then the REQUIRED video codec will be VP8

    [I-D.webm].

Or this

    WebRTC clients are REQUIRED to implement the following audio codecs.

  

     [...]

  

    o  Opus [draft-ietf-codec-opus]

I may have missed it in the flood of emails on this reflector, but I do 
not recall having seen any discussion whatsoever towards a decision 
between the two video codecs mentioned, let alone a decision made on 
commercial constraints and an attached timeline.  Please note that I 
could most likely agree to the video codec issues as drafted, with the 
exception of the timeline, which is IMO overly and unnecessarily ambitious.

Similarly, I do not recall a sufficiently in-depth discussion about 
audio codecs (though there has been a bit more discussion on the 
reflector in this regard).  I find it strange that we consider making an 
declared-as-royalty-bearing audio codec mandatory, without even having 
the slightest idea of the licensing terms beyond the RAND terms offered. 
  Strangely, we are not providing the right holder with a timeline 
similar as the one used for H.264.  Perhaps we should work with the 
Qualcomm guys to see whether they would be willing to provide an RF 
license with a field of use restriction to webrtc.  As the very minimum, 
I would request the opus codec being profiled such that most obvious 
matches between patent claims offered under royalty bearing RAND terms 
and opus encoder and decoder as to be used in webrtc be eliminated.

To summarize, without having those (and perhaps a few more) points 
discussed in public on the reflector, I believe that it is too early to 
adopt your draft as a WG draft.

Stephan

Hello WebRTC chairs,

I have updated and submitted a 02 version of the WebRTC Codec draft: 
http://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-cbran-rtcweb-codec-01.txt

I believe that this draft is representative of areas where the working 
group has achieved consensus and at this time I would like to ask that 
the 01 draft be adopted as a working group document.

I look forward to your feedback.

            may have missed it in the flood of emails on this reflector,
            but I do not recall having seen any discussion whatsoever
            towards a decision between the two video codecs mentioned,
            let alone a decision made on commercial constraints and an
            attached timeline. &nbsp;Please note that I could most likely
            agree to the video codec issues as drafted, with the
            exception of the timeline, which is IMO overly and
            unnecessarily ambitious. &nbsp;</span></p>

        <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.5pt; color:black">Similarly,

            I do not recall a sufficiently in-depth discussion about
            audio codecs (though there has been a bit more discussion on
            the reflector in this regard). &nbsp;I find it strange that we
            consider making an declared-as-royalty-bearing audio codec
            mandatory, without even having the slightest idea of the
            licensing terms beyond the RAND terms offered. &nbsp;Strangely,
            we are not providing the right holder with a timeline
            similar as the one used for H.264. &nbsp;Perhaps we should work
            with the Qualcomm guys to see whether they would be willing
            to provide an RF license with a field of use restriction to
            webrtc. &nbsp;As the very minimum, I would request the opus codec
            being profiled such that most obvious matches between patent
            claims offered under royalty bearing RAND terms and opus
            encoder and decoder as to be used in webrtc be eliminated. &nbsp;</span></p>

            summarize, without having those (and perhaps a few more)
            points discussed in public on the reflector, I believe that
            it is too early to adopt your draft as a WG draft.</span></p>

Many thanks Rob!

I will update the wording and send out the 02 draft to the mailer by end of=
 week.

Subject: Re: [rtcweb] Codec Draft

Cary:

I have not seen a specific follow up text, but video codec requirements sec=
tion appears overtaken by events and should be changed.

Here is proposed text that will hopefully reflect consensus spirit:

...
3.2. Video Codec Requirements
If the MPEG-LA issues an intent to offer H.264 baseline profile on a royalt=
y free basis for use in browsers before March 15, 2012, then the REQUIRED v=
ideo codecs will be H.264 baseline. If this does not happen by that the dat=
e, then the REQUIRED video codec will be VP8 [I-D.webm].

The REQUIRED video codec will be a royalty-free codec which has been specif=
ied by a recognized standards process such as MPEG or other due-process sta=
ndards group and provide reviewable substantiation of its royalty-free stat=
us.

________________________________
After further review, I think I get your point, my apologies if I caused an=
y confusion.

What I meant to say was that I believe we have captured areas where we have=
 consensus in the draft.  Obviously at this time there is no consensus as t=
o which audio/video codecs will be mandatory to implement yet.     To be cl=
ear here, in the draft we put in a proposal for a mandatory to implement co=
dec and we should have qualified it as an open issue, where we have no cons=
ensus.

Stephan, if you or anyone else, has a proposal as to what to add to the lis=
t, we would be more than happy to add it to the document and correctly labe=
l the areas where we have no consensus in an attempt to facilitate the disc=
ussion.

Regards,

-Cary

Good points Stephan.

I agree that more discussion is needed and all I am proposing here is a doc=

Hi Cary, WG,

Cary, how did you come to your conclusion that the WG has achieved consensu=
s on a subject like this:

   If the MPEG-LA issues an intent to offer H.264 baseline profile on a

   royalty free basis for use in browsers before March 15, 2012, then

   the REQUIRED video codecs will be H.264 baseline.  If this does not

   happen by that the date, then the REQUIRED video codec will be VP8

   [I-D.webm].

Or this


   WebRTC clients are REQUIRED to implement the following audio codecs.



    [=85]



   o  Opus [draft-ietf-codec-opus]

I may have missed it in the flood of emails on this reflector, but I do not=
 recall having seen any discussion whatsoever towards a decision between th=
e two video codecs mentioned, let alone a decision made on commercial const=
raints and an attached timeline.  Please note that I could most likely agre=
e to the video codec issues as drafted, with the exception of the timeline,=
 which is IMO overly and unnecessarily ambitious.

Similarly, I do not recall a sufficiently in-depth discussion about audio c=
odecs (though there has been a bit more discussion on the reflector in this=
 regard).  I find it strange that we consider making an declared-as-royalty=
-bearing audio codec mandatory, without even having the slightest idea of t=
he licensing terms beyond the RAND terms offered.  Strangely, we are not pr=
oviding the right holder with a timeline similar as the one used for H.264.=
  Perhaps we should work with the Qualcomm guys to see whether they would b=
e willing to provide an RF license with a field of use restriction to webrt=
c.  As the very minimum, I would request the opus codec being profiled such=
 that most obvious matches between patent claims offered under royalty bear=
ing RAND terms and opus encoder and decoder as to be used in webrtc be elim=
inated.

To summarize, without having those (and perhaps a few more) points discusse=
d in public on the reflector, I believe that it is too early to adopt your =
draft as a WG draft.

Hello WebRTC chairs,

I have updated and submitted a 02 version of the WebRTC Codec draft: http:/=
/tools.ietf.org/id/draft-cbran-rtcweb-codec-01.txt

I believe that this draft is representative of areas where the working grou=
p has achieved consensus and at this time I would like to ask that the 01 d=
raft be adopted as a working group document.

I look forward to your feedback.

If you mean that the required video codec should be the output of the 
ISO MPEG IVC or WebVC efforts, remember that:

1) Neither of these efforts will be available until 2013 - IF everything 
goes according to plan. It is entirely possible that neither of these 
efforts will deliver an outcome.
2) Neither of these efforts has any guaranteed outcome in terms of 
resulting video quality.

So I'm afraid I have to be counted as "not part of the consensus" for 
the text you suggested.

I still hope that we'll sooner or later make a positive statement about 
what we actually need in a baseline video codec in terms of quality, 
industry support, stability of specification or royalty-free status; so 
far, all attempts to start debating what we actually require have died 
without even a whimper.

                          Harald

Hi,


During the last IETF meeting, there seemed to be many people willing to
have SRTP mandatory-to-use in the browser. However, I would like again to
underline that in some contexts, it is rather desirable to deactivate, via
the WebRTC API, the use of SRTP in order not to encrypt/decrypt at multiple
layers.


This may be the case in the following example: a company wants to use
WebRTC for communications between its co-workers only; the web server and
the script using WebRTC API are located on the VPN. In such a case, there
is no need to use SRTP. The VPN already provides encryption when needed. If
co-workers want to remotely access the VPN, an IPsec tool can already
provide the encryption. Furthermore, if they want to remotely access the
VPN via a 3G network, there will be encryption at layer 2 using AKA, then
IPsec at layer 3, and again at SRTP level if mandatory-to-use.


Cheers,

Xavier

Hi Rob,

I'm not at all an expert in this debate so I'm not sure what "royalty
free basis for use in browsers" means: does this mean you would be
allowed, royalty free, to decode/encode H.264 baseline streams if your
encoder/decoder is the browser itself? Wouldn't this only work if such
a stream would only flow between two browsers untouched, that is, no
content adaptation/transcoding/overlays/mixing on the server side if
needed? Service and Content providers would still need a licence if I
got it correctly, or am I missing something?

Lorenzo

I don't understand why this makes SRTP undesirable. What scarce
resource are you conserving
here by not using SRTP? As has been noted a number of times, the cost
of the crypto on
the endpoints is generally not significant.

Moreover, it's not obvious that even in this setting SRTP doesn't add security
benefit. Why are you assuming that I want everyone on the same LAN
as me to be able to listen to my calls, even if they are my co-workers?

SRTP provides MUCH MORE than just that, it has been largely discussed
and explained in this maillist. Pease don't simplify so much.

Hi Xavier,

In your case the VPN use might be good enough from enterprise IT perspectiv=
e, but not necessarily for individual employees suspicious of their co-work=
ers, or the IT department, for that matter :)

As far as I can tell, the trend in corporate services is towards service-sp=
ecific end-to-end security and away from L3 VPN type of catch-all solutions=
. For instance, I'm now connected to my corporate e-mail over TLS and to my=
 corporate VoIP over TLS and SRTP, not having my IPSec VPN on. 5 years ago =
I could only access those services using the VPN.

Markus

Subject: [rtcweb] SRTP not mandatory-to-use

Hi,

During the last IETF meeting, there seemed to be many people willing to hav=
e SRTP mandatory-to-use in the browser. However, I would like again to unde=
rline that in some contexts, it is rather desirable to deactivate, via the =
WebRTC API, the use of SRTP in order not to encrypt/decrypt at multiple lay=
ers.

This may be the case in the following example: a company wants to use WebRT=
C for communications between its co-workers only; the web server and the sc=
ript using WebRTC API are located on the VPN. In such a case, there is no n=
eed to use SRTP. The VPN already provides encryption when needed. If co-wor=
kers want to remotely access the VPN, an IPsec tool can already provide the=
 encryption. Furthermore, if they want to remotely access the VPN via a 3G =
network, there will be encryption at layer 2 using AKA, then IPsec at layer=
 3, and again at SRTP level if mandatory-to-use.

Cheers,
Xavier

Is there any scientific reference comparing the performances (cpu) of
a SRTP communication vs an RTP communication on a smartphone device,
or on an interworking network server? The feedback I have is that SRTP
overhead is significant, at least on interworking network servers
handling several calls in parallel. One example is
http://trac.pjsip.org/repos/wiki/PJMEDIA-MIPS which gives figures,
perhaps non-optimized, but figures anyway:

Adding more security like SRTP certainly adds more confidence and
probabilities that the call is more secure. However, as most of you
know, there is no guarantee that nobody can listen to your calls even
with SRTP. The web server is in the path of the webrtc media IP and
port advertised by the browser of the users; It thus has the
possibility to modify these parameters and direct a user's browser to
communicate towards an SRTP-to-SRTP gateway instead of the remote
called user. The communication between the two users is made of 2 SRTP
links, with an unencrypted access possible at the SRTP gateway.

Hi Markus,

Your mail is a nice summary. However, I just want to point out that
some enterprises want VPN and plain RTP.

+1 with Eric's comment.

I also see some problems in the original argument.

First of all, as had been pointed to this list a while ago, once there 
is an option to decline security, people will be mislead into doing just 
that.

Second, the VPN argument is flawed in a way additional to what Eric 
pointed: My client and my server may be within the VPN,  while the 
client of my interlocutor does not have to be; then the path outside of 
VPN is exposed.

Third, I don't quite understand the 3G argument.  AKA is used to set up 
keys--and not only for the link layer protection. It is re-used later, 
via GBA, to applicataion layer authentication and session keys. IPsec is 
used in IMS for signaling--not for the voice path, and in any event the 
IPsec tunnel terminates in the network; it is not end-to-end.

Lorenzo:

I agree, royalty-free sub-uses are problematic,  giving with one hand 
while taking from another.

Only way to know is to review specifics, which is why I am proposing to 
replace the phrase you quote with a more consensus-building wording 
"reviewable substantiation of its royalty-free status".

Harald:

Fair points, failure is always a possibility/option.

Changing "will" to "should" addresses concern for fall-back option in 
unobjectionable, normal form, yes?

"The REQUIRED video codec should be a royalty-free codec which has been 
specified by a recognized standards process such as MPEG or other 
due-process standards group and provide reviewable substantiation of its 
royalty-free status."

Chris:

Please see rewording in email to Harald.

Sharing your healthy skepticism, nothing has changed is no reason to do 
nothing.  The proposed language fixes text, whether doubting or 
timelining progress merited.  If existing standards aren't as good as 
they should be, work to improve them.

Hi, all:

I also agree with Igor and other members.

VPN security can be at best up to the end-to-end network layer (layer 2/3) =
level, but codec-to-codec media stream (audio/video) level is not covered w=
here SRTP comes into play for security.

Now the question comes whether it is worthwhile to take security risks that=
 VPN does not take care of because there can be host of internal networking=
 between the end-user's codec and the place where the VPN security boundary=
 ends.

Best regards,
Radhika

+1 with Eric's comment.

I also see some problems in the original argument.

First of all, as had been pointed to this list a while ago, once there is a=
n option to decline security, people will be mislead into doing just that.

Second, the VPN argument is flawed in a way additional to what Eric
pointed: My client and my server may be within the VPN,  while the client o=
f my interlocutor does not have to be; then the path outside of VPN is expo=
sed.

Third, I don't quite understand the 3G argument.  AKA is used to set up key=
s--and not only for the link layer protection. It is re-used later, via GBA=
, to applicataion layer authentication and session keys. IPsec is used in I=
MS for signaling--not for the voice path, and in any event the IPsec tunnel=
 terminates in the network; it is not end-to-end.

I'm not sure why you chose this particular platform. It doesn't seem to rea=
lly
be representative of what we are targeting.

Regardless, on desktop class machines or modern smartphones (e.g. iPhone)
the crypto shouldn't represent a particularly large fraction of the
load. For instance,
a macbook air can do something like 128 MB/s on a single core.

(1) I would encourage you to read draft-ietf-rtcweb-security-01, which cons=

this and other related issues in detail.

(2) I don't really see the relevance of this point to your example, which w=
as
about people in allegedly secure network environments. My point is that
just because you are behind a firewall doesn't mean that you want everyone
behind the firewall to have access to your communications. This seems
orthogonal to the question of whether you trust the media server.

Chris:

No, the revised text doesn't remove decision responsibility from this 
group, it does the opposite, by being accurate and following procedure.

The old text doesn't even get profiles right, and as said by others has 
overly and unnecessarily ambitious timeline and muddles licensing.

If a liaison-like communication is intended, use the established 
procedure for that -- IETF is a Category A liaison to SC 29.  Alias 
emails and non-consensus docs lack standing, don't establish that 
meaningful avenues were ever even tried, let alone exhausted, and might 
not even be read.

"MPEG-LA-is-a-monopolist" characterization casts wrong procedural net, 
among reasons pending lawsuits -- one more reason to be accurate and 
follow procedure.

Really is the language below so objectionable?  It is straightforward 
and constructive.

Rob

"The REQUIRED video codec should be a royalty-free codec which has been 
specified by a recognized standards process such as MPEG or other 
due-process standards group and provide reviewable substantiation of its 
royalty-free status."

Half the market of browsers have indicated they are willing to use it as the default codec for this effort (and the other half haven't even said they are willing to support WebRTC at all!)  We're also been shipping it for HTML5 support for quite a while so there's quite a bit of in-the-field experience with it.

But that's entirely up to the rights holders for that technology.  That's why there's a date and a specific call-out to MPEG LA as the monopoly rights holder in the text.  It's up to them to decide, and they have three months from tomorrow to do so.

This shouldn't be the bar for picking a codec, and hasn't been the bar 
even for those of us who strongly advocate for RF formats. Neither MPEG 
nor anyone else has ever publicly provided such "reviewable 
substantiation" of the complete IPR status of any codec, and even MPEG 
LA specifically disclaims any implication that they provide a license to 
all patents necessary to implement their formats.

What actually matters is, are people willing to ship it? So far there's 
no evidence that the conditions you want to impose are even sufficient 
to get all browser vendors to ship a single codec, much less necssary.

This is the critical point.  The working group agreed to specify a
mandatory-to-implement here because we want to avoid interoperability
failures.   Defining one that folks won't ship does not achieve that
goal.  It's that simple.

For once, I completely agree with Tim and Ted (though I also concur that
Rob's language is an improvement over what was in the -01 draft, for
reasons stated by others and myself).  Scary :-)

So why not write it down Ted's reasoning?  Putting a bit of my own spin to
it, perhaps something like:

"It is desirable to have a mandatory codec that is supported in the
majority of newly deployed browsers.  Accordingly, the WG will wait for an
indication of consensus among the major browser vendors for a mandatory
codec of their choice.  If no such indication is received in a
sufficiently timely manner, then the WG will have to leave the mandatory
video codec unspecified."

Yes, from my viewpoint, major browser vendors include Microsoft and Apple
(both companies with business models that appear, today, to be compatible
with royalty-bearing codec technologies).  It's today's market reality.
And no matter how you spin it, it's going to continue to be the market
reality for a number of years.

No, from all I know it's not overly likely that there will be such a
consensus anytime soon.  But maybe, just maybe, the horse learns to sing.
The MPEG effort could offer an opening for such a "miracle".  I have heard
rumors that there may be other avenues as well--so have others in this WG,
I'm sure.  If the horse doesn't learn to sing--well, we would be no worse
off than HTML5 is today.

Stephan

I'd be willing live with a lack of objections, instead of requiring 
affirmative consensus. Historically it has been very hard to get the 
latter, even about much less contentious technologies, but there is some 
precedent that people are willing to voice the former.

I'm certainly not in the position to argue your point :-).  Fine.
When having a "lack of objection" formulation, I wouldn't even comment
negatively on a reasonably set deadline.

Chris:

No, not at all, I'm saying something altogether different: I am saying 
all these kinds of characterizations supporting old text, however 
framed, cast wrong procedural net, for multiple reasons.

Proposed new text is straightforward and should be unobjectionable:

"The REQUIRED video codec should be a royalty-free codec which has been 
specified by a recognized standards process such as MPEG or other 
due-process standards group and provide reviewable substantiation of its 
royalty-free status."

I sort of agree with the sentiment of this but the problem is that it is =

The long parse of that is (as I read it):

* Royalty-free is a requirement.
* Specified (not just blessed) by an acceptable standards process is a 
requirement.
* MPEG's process is an acceptable standards process.
* There has to be documentation of royalty-free status that can be reviewed.

Implicit in the statement (given that this is the only statement) is:

* There is no reason to talk about the technical quality of the codec.
* The form of IPR documentation, or the amount of review, can be left 
unspecified. This can be read as an implicit assumption that MPEG's 
currently specified IPR process is "good enough".
* It is OK to wait until such a royalty-free codec exists before 
emitting the specification.

Of these seven points, there is only one I'm sure I agree with.

              Harald

Harald:

These points seem good input for elaboration and liaison statement.

Should be easy to connect dots; it appears a proposer of one of the MPEG 
tracks may be rtcweb co-chair's employer.

Cullen:

This seems a worthy point to raise in a liaison to ISO SC29/WG11 and and 
perhaps to proposers of the MPEG tracks.

There's also a resolution that MPEG members make WG 11 aware of market 
developments in the space.

I don't think a requirement like that would really fit inside the IETF process.

I sort of agree with the sentiment of this but the problem is that it is often not practically possible to figure out if any given codec is royalty free or not and the IETF explicitly does not take on the task of trying to figure out if a given technology actually infringes on a given patent or not. I don't think a requirement like that would really fit inside the IETF process.

I like this text, except that "royalty-free" is like "non-encumbered
by patents" and other such text - you can never be sure.
All you can want is one that _claims_ to be royalty-free, and the text
should reflect that IMO.

I also don't think that "and provide" scans very well as is.

So, how about

"The REQUIRED video codec should be a codec which has been both
 specified and asserted to be royalty-free by a recognized standards
process such as MPEG or other
due-process standards group and should provide reviewable substantiation of=
 its
royalty-free status."

When the CODEC WG was formed there was interesting discussion around the =
point of making RF required.=20

Lets say we have two proposals on the table, A and B. Some person of =
dubious morals decides they don't like proposal A. They make an IETF IPR =
disclosure on A that says that their employer *might* have IPR on A and =
they have not yet decided on licensing terms. At that point proposal A =
is removed from the table even thought much of the WG may not believe =
that the IPR being claimed is actually valid. The important thing is we =
leave give the participants of the WG the information we know about the =
IPR status yet at the same time allow them to decisions about if they =
want to go forward with proposal A or B.=20

The above attack was a key part of they the codec WG charter uses the =
word "preferred" instead of "required".=20

On a side note, has any SDO ever done a "reviewable substantiation of =
royalty-free status" for anything? I'd love to see one.=20

On a separate note about the MPEG work on RF codecs =85I think this is =
great to see any SDO taking this on. However, Lets say it takes 1/2 year =
to get going, then 1.5 years to finish the standard, then 2 years to get =
into chip sets, then another 2 years to get in enough chipsets of widely =
distributed products that it becomes interesting in the fact that a =
larger percentage of devices can do it =85 we are looking many years =
out. The timeline I just gave was much faster than the adoption of H.264 =
which is likely the mostly hazily invested in codec ever from point of =
adoption. My point is, I don't think the browser are going to wait for =
this new codec as the mandatory to implement codec for WebRTC. However, =
clearly WebRTC should be able to negotiate a new codec like this is both =
sides support it. My prediction is we will see development of royalty =
free video codecs at SDOs. IMHO none of the current SDOs have a process =
and IPR rules that both allows the open source community and individual =
contributors to participate while at the same time ensuring enough =
secrecy that ideas could not be "poached" by patent trolls and  ensuring =
that employers of participants where bound to an RF agreement. W3C is =
likely the closet model to allow something like this.=20
