The three membership sets (Local Pending, Remote Pending, Members)
reflect call state. For a phone-like situation, here's what they might mean:
Incoming call
=============
No channel exists
v
v Incoming network event indicates that remote user is calling us
v CM creates channel
v
Local user in Local Pending, remote user in Members = our phone is ringing
v
v UI calls AddMembers([local_user_handle]) to accept call
v CM responds by accepting the call
v
Local and remote users in Members
Outgoing call (support for this API is required)
================================================
No channel exists
v
v UI calls RequestChannel(..., type=0, handle=0, ...)
v CM creates channel
v
Local user in Members
v
v UI calls AddMembers([remote_user_handle])
v CM responds by calling the remote user
v
Local user in Members, remote user in Remote Pending = their phone is ringing
v
v Incoming network event indicates that remote user has accepted call
v
Local and remote users in Members
Outgoing call, alternative (support for this API is recommended)
================================================================
No channel exists
v
v UI calls RequestChannel(..., type=CONTACT, handle=remote_user, ...)
v CM creates channel and immediately calls the remote user
v
Local user in Members, remote user in Remote Pending = their phone is ringing
v
v Incoming network event indicates that remote user has accepted call
v
Local and remote users in Members
We've just merged some clarifications to the streamed media spec which should
make this clearer.
