Proposing to discuss how DASH players/dash.js can be made compatible with WebTransport/MoQ:

• In general, how can dash.js profit from WebTransport/MoQ (e.g. lower startup time, better throughput calculation, etc.)?
• Does dash.js still pull MPDs or is it a complete server-driven push architecture?
• How can DASH MPDs be mapped to MoQ Catalogs?
