Summary of decisions made at May 27th virtual meeting

All,

below is a summary of what was decided at the meeting (minutes at [1]).
This is posted to the list to provide the opportunity for those not at
the meeting to object if there is something they find unreasonable.

* receiver.track.stop() will not stop the transceiver, it will continue
to be alive and send RTCP (related to [2])
* We will add an API control whether or not DTX is used (so the app can
decide to not use it even if DTX/CN is negotiated in the SDP O/A).
Exactly what the API will look like is still discussed ([3]).
* We will add a table summarizing RTCRtpEncodingParameters attributes as 
proposed in [4]
* We will use both MIME type _and_ subType ([5])
* We will not make addTransceiver/addTrack async, which means transport
can in some situations be null [6]
* Adding the same track several times via supplying it as argument to
addTransceiver() will stay allowed [7]
* We will not add (back) legacy methods like addStream or removeStream
[8] or related events.

If we hear no objections within a week we will consider the above as WG
consensus.

Stefan for the chairs
