This normative reference redirects to a googlesource link. I'll need to check with folks internally how to handle this.

Can we add a note mentioning any efforts to standardize this?

My understanding is after an IETF effort it would end up here?

See w3c/webrtc-extensions#216. I worry if we merge this it creates a blocker for advancement.

We now have Harold’s draft (which will be up for adoption in IETF AVTCORE WG): https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-alvestrand-avtcore-abs-capture-time/
