Hackathon at IETF 115

This weekend is the IETF hackathon in London.

I'm putting up a table there with a WebRTC sign on it, with the stated 
purpose (based on a suggestion by Bernard Aboba) being to investigate 
new shapes of APIs for encoded media by making "demos" that exercise 
those APIs.

This follows on from the discussions about encoded media APIs at TPAC.

It's likely to be possible to get those demos somewhat functional by 
shimming "new" APIs on top of the older APIs - not to achieve the full 
functionality, but to get a "feel" for how it's possible to write the 
kind of apps that we may want.

As usual, this is late in preparation and late in announcing - the 
repository has only a few skeletons still - but the opportunity is 
there, and it seemed too good to miss.

The repository is https://github.com/alvestrand/hackathon-encoded-media

We'll figure out something for remote participation if we have remote 
participants who want to take part.

See you (in person or virtually) there!
