Ok, if people want to change this, lets do it. But here is the requirement for Cisco legal. We have been engaged in litigation over IPR related to WebRTC. The assumption of juries is that a document is published with your name on the front pages of it, that you have read it. So what we can do is (and is done on many other projects) is simply make sure that any change to master is done with a PR, and all PR are reviewed by all the documents authors before being merged. This does not mean the authors need to agree with the PR, they need to have read and reviewed it so any legal issue arriving can be resolved or identified. Some people object to this, but I think that if I published something you totally disagreed with with your name on th front of it and implied to others that you had written that, well that is more or less the "fake news" problem and W3C should do do that. I will note as a side note, that if you end up with a new version of a document ever day, you tend to not have logical points to review it. And you end up with less review. This document already receives too little review. -- GitHub Notification of comment by fluffy Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/webrtc-pc/issues/942#issuecomment-277034696 using your GitHub account
