2026-04-15 - Add people pages, fix editor/author roles

Operation: Expansion + Correction

Pages created: ian-swett.md, victor-vasiliev.md, mike-english.md Pages updated: alan-frindell.md, suhas-nandakumar.md, moq-transport.md, index.md, discussions-2026-04.md, discussions-2026-03.md, discussions-2026-02.md, discussions-2026-01.md, open-issues-analysis.md, joining-fetch.md, joining-fetch-dissent.md, quiche-moq.md, moq-rs.md, moq-js.md, interop-runner.md

Key changes:

  • Three new people pages: Ian Swett (Google, co-editor of moq-transport), Victor Vasiliev (Google, author of moq-transport, quiche-moq co-developer), Mike English (Cloudflare, maintainer of moq-rs/moq-js, interop runner operator, MoQ Monthly publisher).
  • Role corrections: Alan Frindell and Ian Swett are the editors of draft-ietf-moq-transport. Suhas Nandakumar and Victor Vasiliev are authors. Previously the wiki listed Suhas as co-editor. Alan’s page updated to “Co-editor”, Suhas’s page corrected from “Editor” to “Author”.
  • moq-transport.md authors section now lists all four authors with wikilinks.
  • Wikilinks added across 11 wiki pages: all plain-text mentions of Ian Swett, Victor Vasiliev, and Mike English converted to [[wikilink]] format.
  • People section in index.md expanded from 6 to 9 entries.

2026-04-15 - CMSF ContentProtection merged, Shaka Player DRM support

Operation: Update Sources:

  • GitHub: moq-wg/cmsf PR #18 (merged Apr 14 by Will Law)
  • GitHub: shaka-project/shaka-player PR #9972 (merged Apr 14 by Álvaro Velad Galván)
  • User (maintainer) confirmed both merges

Pages updated: moq-cmsf.md, shaka-player.md, moqlivemock.md, discussions-2026-04.md

Key changes:

  • CMSF ContentProtection signaling (PR #18): DRM signaling proposal by Torbjörn Einarsson (Eyevinn) merged into the CMSF spec. Defines contentProtections with refIDs and per-track contentProtectionRefIDs. Supports Widevine, PlayReady, FairPlay, and ECCP (ClearKey). Based on DASH/DASH-IF attributes. Key rotation not yet covered.
  • moqlivemock/warp-player DRM: DRM support implemented by Hugo Björs (Eyevinn). Supports Widevine, PlayReady, FairPlay, and ClearKey/ECCP.
  • Shaka Player DRM support (PR #9972): Álvaro Velad Galván (Atème) added CMSF contentProtection support to Shaka Player. This makes Shaka Player the second implementation of CMSF ContentProtection, after moqlivemock/warp-player. Two independent implementations is a significant milestone for the feature.

2026-04-15 - Wiki update: issue #3 corrections, DELIVERY_TIMEOUT PR, interop improvement

Operation: Update + Corrections Sources:

  • Slack moq: No new messages (channel quiet since Feb 11)
  • GitHub: moq-transport — new PR #1605 (Split DELIVERY_TIMEOUT, Victor Vasiliev, Apr 14)
  • GitHub: msf — no new activity since Apr 14; loc — no new activity
  • Mailing list: No new threads since Apr 13
  • IETF Datatracker: No new draft versions
  • Interop runner: Improved to 23 pass / 68 fail / 14 skip (from 21/70/14 on Apr 14)
  • tobbee/moq-llm-wiki: Issue #3 filed by Mike English (englishm) — detailed fact-check with corrections

Pages updated: moq-rs.md, moq-js.md, quiche-moq.md (rewritten), moq-transport.md, interop-runner.md, interop-status.md, interop-endpoints.md, discussions-2026-04.md, publish-subscribe.md (via moq-transport.md), martin-duke.md, index.md

Key changes:

Issue #3 corrections (Mike English):

  • moq-rs history rewritten: Corrected Mike English’s role — he did not help with the Go→Rust translation (that was Luke Curley). Mike joined mid-2023 as a close collaborator, contributing relay deployments, moq-pub, C FFI exploration, and draft-04 support. Added detailed timeline and key contributors (Manish, Jacob, Scott Godin, Zafer Gurel).
  • quiche-moq disambiguation: The wiki incorrectly described quiche-moq as a Rust implementation (birneee/quiche_moq). The interop runner’s “quiche-moq” is actually Google’s QUICHE MoQT — a C++ implementation inside Google’s QUICHE library (part of Chromium), primarily developed by Martin Duke and Victor Vasiliev with ~74+ source files. Rewrote the page entirely. birneee/quiche_moq is a separate Rust project on Cloudflare’s quiche crate, not in the interop runner.
  • moq-js Montevideo Tech context: Added history about video-dev/moq-js development coming from the Montevideo Tech Summer Camp 2025, with Mike as technical sponsor and Qualabs community contributors. The 2026 Summer Camp features both Mike and Luke as co-sponsors.
  • moqpack label: Changed status from “Active” to “Individual” in index to clarify it’s not a WG document.
  • publish-subscribe fix: Corrected “REQUEST” to “REQUEST_OK/REQUEST_ERROR” in the moq-transport Key Concepts list (there is no bare “REQUEST” message in the spec).
  • Community resources: Added section to index with MoQ Monthly newsletter (Mike English), Demuxed MoQ Talks playlist, Montevideo Tech Summer Camp, moq.dev Discord, and link to IETF Datatracker for all 24+ individual drafts.
  • Individual drafts listing: Added note about notable uncovered individual drafts (rewind, qlog, hang, cdn-provisioning, relay-dos).

New findings:

  • Transport PR #1605 (Apr 14): Victor Vasiliev proposes splitting DELIVERY_TIMEOUT into two separate types of timeout.
  • Interop runner improvement: 23/68/14 — best result since test count expanded to 105. Two additional tests passing compared to Apr 14.
  • draft-cenzano-moq-media-interop-03 expires in 8 days (Apr 23) — still no renewal.

2026-04-14 - Wiki update: GraphQL mailing list thread, MSF authz merge, CARP origin, interop recovery

Operation: Update Sources:

  • Slack moq: New messages Apr 13-14 (visa question for London interim, Hugo Björs joined)
  • GitHub: msf — PR #118 (authorization flows) merged Apr 13, issue #119 closed
  • GitHub: moq-transport — no new issues/PRs since Apr 13; loc — no new activity
  • Mailing list: New thread “Using MOQT for graphql subscriptions with draft-17 requires extensions” by Alan Frindell (Apr 13)
  • IETF Datatracker: No new WG draft versions; noted draft-law-moq-carp-00 (Nov 2025) as CMSF origin
  • Interop runner: Recovery to 21 pass / 70 fail / 14 skip (from 20/71/14 on Apr 13)
  • tobbee/moq-llm-wiki: No open issues

Pages updated: discussions-2026-04.md, interop-runner.md, interop-status.md, moq-msf.md, moq-cmsf.md, will-law.md, alan-frindell.md, index.md

Key findings:

  • GraphQL subscriptions on MOQT (mailing list, Apr 13): Alan Frindell argues draft-17’s inflexible message parameters are a mistake. Key issues: 4KB track name limit forces query body into namespace/name; custom parameters require negotiation at every hop; 64KB control message size limit may be too small; no HTTP-like header forwarding for auth. Broader question about MOQT suitability for non-media use cases.
  • MSF PR #118 merged (Apr 13): Authorization flows documentation added to MSF spec by Suhas Nandakumar.
  • CARP → CMSF lineage: draft-law-moq-carp-00 (“CARP - a CMAF compliant implementation of WARP”, Nov 2025) was adopted by the WG and became draft-ietf-moq-cmsf-00 (Dec 2025). Added history to CMSF page.
  • Interop runner: Recovered from 20/71 (Apr 13) back to 21/70 (Apr 14). One test flipped back to pass.
  • draft-cenzano-moq-media-interop-03 expires in 9 days (Apr 23) — still no renewal.
  • Slack activity minimal: Aman Sharma asked about visa invitation for London interim; Hugo Björs joined moq.

2026-04-13 - Wiki update: add moq-lite and NMSF drafts, interop regression, #1405 resolution

Operation: Update Sources:

  • GitHub: moq-transport issues/PRs checked — #1405 updated Apr 12 (Ian Swett inclined to close)
  • GitHub: msf — no new activity since Apr 10; loc — no new activity since Mar 23
  • Mailing list: Only weekly GitHub digest on Apr 12, no new substantive threads
  • IETF Datatracker: No new WG draft versions; two individual drafts added to wiki
  • Interop runner: Slight regression (21→20 pass, 70→71 fail)
  • tobbee/moq-llm-wiki: No open issues

Pages created: wiki/drafts/moq-lite.md, wiki/drafts/moq-nmsf.md Pages updated: index.md, discussions-2026-04.md, interop-runner.md, interop-status.md, moq-transport.md, luke-curley.md, moq-dev.md

Key findings:

  • draft-lcurley-moq-lite-04 (Apr 9): Luke Curley’s simplified transport protocol, now at version 04. Removes subgroups, object properties, datagrams, and 30+ message types from moq-transport. Pull-only, stream-based design. Individual submission, not WG-adopted. This is the spec behind moq-dev/moq.
  • draft-herz-moq-nmsf-01 (Apr 7): Erik Herz (Vivoh) proposes extending MSF with Neural Video Codec packaging. Dual-track model (hyperprior + latent) for priority-aware delivery. Supports DCVC-RT, SSF, FVC, and other learned codecs. 18 pages, individual submission.
  • Issue #1405 (Single Object Subgroup ID): Ian Swett commented Apr 12 that he’s inclined to close with no action after PR #1593 saw no WG interest. Will put before WG to confirm.
  • Interop runner: Slight regression from 21 pass / 70 fail to 20 pass / 71 fail (105 tests, 14 skip unchanged). One test flipped from pass to fail.
  • Virtual interim 13 happening today (Apr 13) with REWIND slides on agenda.
  • draft-cenzano-moq-media-interop-03 expires in 10 days (Apr 23) — still monitoring for renewal.
  • Slack moq: No new messages (channel quiet since Feb 11).

2026-04-12 - Rename Eyevinn MOQ Stack to moqlivemock, major update

Operation: Update + Rename Sources: User (maintainer) provided updated feature list; GitHub repos checked for versions.

File renamed: wiki/implementations/eyevinn-moq.md → wiki/implementations/moqlivemock.md Pages updated: moqlivemock.md (full rewrite), index.md (renamed + updated draft versions), interop-status.md (renamed + added draft-16), shaka-player.md (updated wikilinks), discussions-2026-01.md (updated wikilink)

  • All [[eyevinn-moq]] wikilinks updated to [[moqlivemock]]

2026-04-12 - Add draft-cenzano-moq-media-interop-03

Operation: Ingest Sources:

Pages created: wiki/drafts/moq-media-interop.md Pages updated: index.md (added to drafts table), alan-frindell.md (added as co-author), media-packaging.md (added Media Interop section), interop-status.md (added media wire format interop section)

Key findings:

  • Individual submission by Jorge Cenzano-Ferret and Alan Frindell (both Meta), currently at version 03
  • Defines concrete media wire format over LOC for H.264 video, Opus audio, AAC-LC audio, and UTF-8 text
  • Uses MOQT extension headers (0x0A, 0x15, 0x0D, 0x0F, 0x11, 0x13) for media metadata
  • Supports mid-stream encoding parameter changes
  • Expires 2026-04-23 — needs monitoring for renewal. If not renewed, the draft lapses.
  • Not adopted by the MOQ working group (individual submission)

2026-04-12 - Fix moq-rs production draft version, add doc.moq.dev

Operation: Correction + Enhancement Sources:

  • Slack moq thread (2026-04-11): Mike English noted moq-rs wiki page incorrectly listed draft-07 as Cloudflare’s current production deployment — it’s actually draft-14
  • Slack moq thread (2026-04-11): Luke Curley pointed to doc.moq.dev as documentation for moq-dev/moq

Pages updated:

  • moq-rs.md — Fixed draft support: production deployment is draft-14, not draft-07
  • moq-dev.md — Added doc.moq.dev as documentation link

2026-04-12 - Wiki update: interop runner expansion, required-request-id debate, rewind-02

Operation: Update Sources:

  • Slack moq: No new messages (channel quiet since Feb 11)
  • GitHub: moq-transport issues/PRs checked — #1603 has new comments from Ian Swett (Apr 11)
  • GitHub: msf, loc — no new activity since Apr 10
  • Mailing list: No new threads since last update
  • IETF Datatracker: No new WG draft versions; draft-duke-moq-subscribe-rewind-02 published Apr 2
  • Interop runner: Test count expanded from 93 to 105; moqx (OpenMOQ relay) added as 11th implementation
  • tobbee/moq-llm-wiki: No open issues

Pages updated: interop-status.md, interop-runner.md, discussions-2026-04.md, joining-fetch-dissent.md, martin-duke.md, openmoq.md

Key findings:

  • Interop runner expanded to 105 tests (was 93) with 21 pass / 70 fail / 14 skip. The growth is from moqx (OpenMOQ’s moxygen fork) joining the matrix as an 11th relay. moqx shows strong results: 6/6 with moq-dev-js, 5-6/6 with moq-rs-draft-16.
  • Ian Swett commented on #1603 (Apr 11): required-request-id was added for “feature parity” with single control stream model but “it was never clear exactly what functionality this provided.” Stream IDs in WebTransport aren’t exposed to applications. He also expressed that Joining FETCH’s dependency on another Request is a design concern.
  • draft-duke-moq-subscribe-rewind-02 published Apr 2 — refines the “Rewind” subscription filter for best-effort past group retrieval. Key topic for interim-13 meeting (Apr 13).
  • Virtual interim 13 is tomorrow (Apr 13) with REWIND slides on the agenda.

2026-04-11 - Split moq-rs/moq-js into separate implementation pages

Operation: Restructure Sources:

  • Slack moq: Mike English’s clarification (2026-04-11) about the relationship between cloudflare/moq-rs, moq-dev/moq, and video-dev/moq-js
  • GitHub API: Repo metadata for all four projects

Context: Mike English explained that cloudflare/moq-rs (was englishm/moq-rs) and moq-dev/moq (was kixelated/moq-rs) are “sibling” implementations that both started from Luke Curley’s original codebase but are now independent. Similarly, video-dev/moq-js and the JS in moq-dev/moq are separate codebases. The forks were born when Luke was not going to support the IETF WG specs directly. Luke’s Hang player is a total rewrite, not derived from the old moq-js.

Pages created: wiki/implementations/moq-dev.md (moq-dev/moq — Luke Curley’s Rust+TS monorepo with moq-lite + Hang) Pages updated:

  • moq-rs.md — Clarified as Cloudflare’s IETF-aligned fork; added history section; updated maintainer to Mike English
  • moq-js.md — Clarified as video-dev’s IETF-aligned JS; added history section
  • index.md — Added moq-dev/moq to implementations list and draft support table
  • luke-curley.md — Updated references from moq-rs to moq-dev
  • interop-endpoints.md — Fixed Luke Curley entry to reference moq-dev
  • interop-status.md — Fixed v17 interop to reference moq-dev instead of moq-rs
  • interop-runner.md — Updated wikilinks for moq-dev-rs and moq-dev-js entries
  • imquic.md — Fixed v17 interop reference to moq-dev

Timeline:

  • 2022-06-29: kixelated/moq-rs created (Luke Curley’s original)
  • 2023-05-24: kixelated/moq-js created (companion JS library)
  • 2024-10-15: englishm/moq-rs and video-dev/moq-js created (IETF-aligned forks)
  • 2025-06-20: kixelated/moq-js archived (“Moved to kixelated/moq”)
  • Now: kixelated/moq-rs → moq-dev/moq (monorepo), englishm/moq-rs → cloudflare/moq-rs

2026-04-11 - Fix broken interop-runner links (issue #2)

Operation: Maintenance Changes:

  • Removed duplicate wiki/implementations/interop-runner.md (content already covered by wiki/interop/interop-runner.md)
  • Moved [[interop-runner]] listing from Implementations to Interop section in wiki/index.md
