I missed most of the meeting relay as I had to run out for some errands, but little birdies on IRC tell me that the outcome was deadlocked. There will continue to be video codec drama on the WebRTC working group mailing lists, and no guarantee of video interoperability between browsers from different vendors.
And of course <audio> and <video> tags also still have no mandatory minimum codec support, so status quo reigns supreme in HTML5 video with incompatible browser implementations.
