dataset: defaults #29

Open sgoendoer opened 7 years ago

sgoendoer commented 7 years ago

We had a discussion regarding the usage and format of the defaults in today's telco.

Right now, the dataset specifies a mandatory parameter "defaults", which is an object with three mandatory parameters "voice", "chat", and "video" of type "string" - more optional parameters may be added though.

IIRC, these values are used by a user's runtime to specify what hyperty/app to use when initiating a connection to another peer without having a hyperty/app running already.

This issue is here to define (exactly), how these default values are used and how they are structured. If needed, the structure can be redefined here.

Ingo: Can you please specify how these values are used, by whom, and in what kind of scenario? Also: How are these values structured? What's the exact format?

imo the hyperty URL is not the best option because it is not stable, and it can be retreived by the domain registry. I would support a link to one of the reachable identities, but this is to discuss.
