WebRTC Working Group Charter extended for two more years (until Feb 28 2015)
- mtgx 14y agoPlease don't tell me this is because of Microsoft. At least if they're extending it this long, I hope they will put the finalized VP9 codec in it.
- vr000m 14y agoWell the extension is because the group hasn't been able to come to consensus on many things and appears to have outsourced some of the hard decisions to the IETF. IMO using SDP has brought a great deal of challenges, which the group didn't anticipate. The decision for the MTI (mandatory to implement) video codec will be made in the coming week (or months, depending on various issues): VP8 or H.264 or both or neither. I presume this decision can be updated at a later point (as and when) new codecs become mature (VP9, ..., H.265 etc.)
