Is ORTC still being implemented in the next version of WebRTC? I've read that ORTC needs a greatly simplified implementation (if you forget about all the other legacy stuff in WebRTC, such as support for the phone networks).
ORTC and WebRTC are separate groups in the W3C. You can think of the ORTC "Community Group" doing more exploratory work on a future version of the API while the WebRTC "Working Group" is finishing the 1.0 version. The work the ORTC Community Group is doing may or may not be adopted by the WebRTC working group as a future version someday, or maybe it will adopt some parts but not all.
The currently drafted ORTC API still allows all of the power to the Javascript apps to interoperate with "legacy stuff", but it also allows the JS to bypass most of it.
(I'm a member of both the WebRTC Working Group and the ORTC Community Group)
There is no WebRTC 1.1 yet. 1.0 isn't even done yet. Once 1.0 is done, then work on 1.1 will start. ORTC maybe be adopted in whole or in parts as 1.1, but the future isn't written yet.
