Hi,

When reading the draft, and chapter 2.10, I wonder if we also need to describe 
sendrecv (symmetric) cases where the answer codec(s) is NOT a subset of the offer 
codec(s), because my understanding is that it was once decided that that is NOT a 
requirement (RFC3264 only talks about that the number of m= lines must match). Now, if 
the nodes don't have a common codec the session will most likely be terminated, but it 
IS still a valid offer/answer case, I think. I don't know if these cases will happen 
in real-life (the receiver of the offer will probably reject it, instead of sending an 
answer, if it can't match any of the codecs).

Another case is where thera are common sendrecv codecs, but specific codec parameters 
(described using the fmtp attribute) are different, because I don't think there are 
any requirements that the parameters in the offer MUST be matched in the answer. 
Again, the session may be terminated, but it's still a valid offer/anser case.

Regards,
