The handshake message now contains a list of supported protocol
versions. Version mismatch is currently a warning, but it will be a
hard error in the future.
Split into the protocol (in protocol.js) and the user interface
(in galene.js). Make the state automaton explicit, and improve
error-handling. The new protocol is incompatible with the old one.
We now distinguish between status, which is maintained by the server,
and data, which is provided by the client. In addition to client data,
we now support group data.
Setting the status after joining (using the "setstatus" action)
may cause multiple "user" messages to be sent to clients. Add
the ability to set the initial status at join time.
We now inform clients of the status of a group (locked, etc.). Also
cleans up the handling of administrative messages, which solves the
issue of receiving "user" before "joined".
We used to label tracks individually, in a view to using the labelling
for simulcast. Since then, the WebRTC community has converged on a
different strategy, where multiple tracks share a single mid and
are labelled with the rid extension.
We now label whole streams, which is simpler, and use the track's
kind (and, in the future, the rid) to disambiguate. This changes the
protocol in two ways:
* in offers, the "labels" dictionary is replaced by a single "label"
field; and
* the syntax of the "request" message has changed.
The server now maintains a set of statuses for each user that are not
interpreted by the server but communicated to the other members of the
group using 'user' messages.
We used to signal connection replacement by reusing the same connection
id. This turned out to be racy, as we couldn't reliably discard old
answers after a connection id was refused.
We now use a new id for every new connection, and explicitly signal
stream replacement in the offer message. This requires maintaining a
local id on the client side.
Split the id field into id and source, where source indicates the sender
of the message and id the entity being sent. Remove the label request,
just use the offerer's username. Maintain the username within the
ServerConnection, this removes a parameter from some methods.
