+# ECP-0009: MoQ implementation selection
+
+Status: Draft
+
+## Problem
+
+We need a practical MoQ implementation to begin integration with iroh while the protocol evolves.
+
+## Survey (Rust implementations)
+
+- **moq-dev/moq**: MoQ reference repository with Rust crates including `moq-lite`, `moq-relay`, and `hang` catalogs.
+  - https://github.com/moq-dev/moq
+- **cloudflare/moq-rs**: Rust implementation of the IETF MoQ Transport draft.
+  - https://github.com/cloudflare/moq-rs
+
+## Decision
+
+Start with `moq-lite` (from moq-dev/moq) and reuse the adapters proven by `iroh-live`:
+
+- `web-transport-iroh` for WebTransport-style bindings over iroh.
+- `iroh-moq` for creating MoQ sessions over iroh connections.
+
+Track `cloudflare/moq-rs` in parallel for standards-aligned MoQ Transport and schedule
+interoperability tests once we have live relays.
+
+## Alternatives considered
+
+- Building a fresh MoQ stack: rejected due to duplication and slow iteration.
+- Waiting for browser-native MoQ: rejected because it delays core network validation.
+- Starting directly on cloudflare/moq-rs: deferred until we need draft-accurate transport.
+
+## Rollout / teardown
+
+- Vendor or depend on `moq-rs` crates.
+- Implement a minimal publish/subscribe pipeline over iroh.
+- Re-evaluate once MoQ standardization and browser support stabilize.
