I personally believe it would probably be helpful to the discussion if
Fedora is able to reach a (preliminary?) decision on if OpenH264 (as
described) will be able to be used by Fedora systems (e.g. by having
something analogous to codec buddy go install the codec to give all
Fedora systems H.264 support) in order to provide feedback to the
working group. If a decision to mandate H.264 in WebRTC means that
Fedora systems would be unable to comply with the specification, that
would be unfortunate.

I don't see mandating H.264 in WebRTC as a good thing. So I'd rather not see Fedora people spend time supporting it, as opposed to doing other Fedora related work. And for people that don't need to worry about software patents or who don't worry about practising them without proper licensing, they can use x264 from RPMFusion.
