I read this through. It seems in remarkably good shape for a mere protoXEP, and the protocol looks solid, useful, and well-designed.
The protocol is brilliant -- thanks to Emil. I just made it work with the webrtc API.
It basically leverages the separation of media description and transport in Jingle to insert the bridge into the media path.
I do think it would really benefit from having a diagram - it's not obvious who is talking to what and how, and given the signalling paths differ from the media paths, this doesn't help matters much.
Right, I'll see if I can add one showing how to use this with Jingle until next week. Implementing a conference focus is somewhat complicated, but the important point is that the clients participating in the colibri session don't care much, for them it looks like a single session (with multiple videos).
