Re: Question about mandatory API in webrtc and mediacapture specs.

I suspect a lot of these API could change as things like DoHickeys get added - I know everyone tries to make the changes without breaking things but I suspect we are still at the stage where any of the API have some small chance of getting changed in a non backwards comparable way. I hope we are very close to the end of that.
