Re: [webrtc-stats] What is the relationship between WebRTC stats and the Working Group? (#746)

The reason for the lightweight process was that, historically, the metrics were well defined and if there was a good standards reference, it was quicker to include it into the spec, as webrtc observability was in its infancy and we needed a corpus of well defined metrics, for browsers to implement.

However, with the emergence of the experimental spec, the bar for the main webrtc-stats spec was raised from well defined metric to at least one implementation of the metric (the implicit assumption that it was well defined and/or was shown to be useful in an origin trial or similar). All metrics that do not meet the bar are moved to the experimental spec.

So perhaps a moment in time to re-think the above process. I would rather move towards a more rigorous PR process than have a combined editor's meeting (which would still not be an open meeting).
