For IPv4 and IPv6 fixed-length address fields are used. A DNS name is an arbitrary length string that is padded with null bytes to the next 32 bit boundary. The string MAY contain IDNA domain names and MUST be UTF-8 encoded [11]. I am really confused here: this is either transporting binary IPv4/IPv6 addresses or a DNS name? |

If the discussion persuades me these changes are inapropriate for an extensions draft, I will move to comment on the call. The authors are requested to consider the issues raised in either case... This document updates RFC 3640, and largely depends upon 3640 for its security considerations. RFC 4855 imposed new requirements for payload registration, including a number of issues in the security considerations section (e.g., identifying whether there is active content, opportunities for steganography, and issues arising from compression techniques). I would like the authors to review the requireemnts in 4855 and ensure that all are addressed in either 3640 or 4855. Is this an appropriate request? |

Wallclock time (absolute date and time) is represented using the timestamp format of the Network Time Protocol (NTP), which is in seconds relative to 0h UTC on 1 January 1900 [4]. The The normative reference [4] is defined as: [4] B. Quinn, R. Finlayson, "SDP Source-Filters", RFC 4570, July 2006. which looks wrong to me. wallclock time MAY (but need not) be NTP-synchronized but it MUST provide a consistent behavior in the advancement if time (similar to NTP). The full resolution NTP timestamp is used which is a 64-bit unsigned fixed-point number with the integer part in the first 32 bits and the fractional part in the last 32 bits. This format is similar to RTCP sender reports (section 6.4.1 of [1]). The timestamp value is used to enable detection of duplicate packets, reordering and to provide a chronological profile of the feedback reports. In Section 7.1.8: Address: 4 octets (IPv4), 16 octets (IPv6), or n octets (DNS name) The address to which receivers send feedback reports. For IPv4 and IPv6 fixed-length address fields are used. A DNS name is an arbitrary length string that is padded with null bytes to the next 32 bit boundary. The string MUST be UTF-8 encoded [11]. I am really confused here: this is either transporting binary IPv4/IPv6 addresses or a DNS name? Also, why is this UTF-8 encoded? Does this mean that IDNA domain names are allowed? If yes, the document should say so. If not, use of US-ASCII is enough for DNS names. |

Has the Document Shepherd personally reviewed this version of the document and, in particular, … PROTO Write-up (1.a) Who is the Document Shepherd for this document? Has the Document Shepherd personally reviewed this version of the document and, in particular, does he or she believe this version is ready for forwarding to the IESG for publication? Colin Perkins is the document shepherd. He has reviewed this version, and believes it ready for publication. (1.b) Has the document had adequate review both from key WG members and from key non-WG members? Does the Document Shepherd have any concerns about the depth or breadth of the reviews that have been performed? No concerns - the draft has had adequate review. (1.c) Does the Document Shepherd have concerns that the document needs more review from a particular or broader perspective, e.g., security, operational complexity, someone familiar with AAA, internationalization or XML? No concerns. (1.d) Does the Document Shepherd have any specific concerns or issues with this document that the Responsible Area Director and/or the IESG should be aware of? For example, perhaps he or she is uncomfortable with certain parts of the document, or has concerns whether there really is a need for it. In any event, if the WG has discussed those issues and has indicated that it still wishes to advance the document, detail those concerns here. Has an IPR disclosure related to this document been filed? If so, please include a reference to the disclosure and summarize the WG discussion and conclusion on this issue. No concerns or issues. No IPR disclosure. (1.e) How solid is the WG consensus behind this document? Does it represent the strong concurrence of a few individuals, with others being silent, or does the WG as a whole understand and agree with it? There is solid consensus, and interest from the mboned group and SSM community. (1.f) Has anyone threatened an appeal or otherwise indicated extreme discontent? If so, please summarise the areas of conflict in separate email messages to the Responsible Area Director. (It should be in a separate email because this questionnaire is entered into the ID Tracker.) No discontent. (1.g) Has the Document Shepherd personally verified that the document satisfies all ID nits? (See http://www.ietf.org/ID-Checklist.html and http://tools.ietf.org/tools/idnits/). Boilerplate checks are not enough; this check needs to be thorough. Has the document met all formal review criteria it needs to, such as the MIB Doctor, media type and URI type reviews? The idnits tool reports two instances of lines with non-RFC3330- compliant IPv4 addresses in the draft, but these are in an informative description of the ASM multicast space, and so are not problematic. The idnits tool also reports potential problems with the references, but these are false positives. (1.h) Has the document split its references into normative and informative? Are there normative references to documents that are not ready for advancement or are otherwise in an unclear state? If such normative references exist, what is the strategy for their completion? Are there normative references that are downward references, as described in [RFC3967]? If so, list these downward references to support the Area Director in the Last Call procedure for them [RFC3967]. References have been split. These is one normative reference to an internet draft (reference 12 to draft-ietf-mmusic-sdp-source- attributes-00.txt which is in good shape for completion in MMUSIC). (1.i) Has the Document Shepherd verified that the document IANA consideration section exists and is consistent with the body of the document? If the document specifies protocol extensions, are reservations requested in appropriate IANA registries? Are the IANA registries clearly identified? If the document creates a new registry, does it define the proposed initial contents of the registry and an allocation procedure for future registrations? Does it suggest a reasonable name for the new registry? See [RFC2434]. If the document describes an Expert Review process has Shepherd conferred with the Responsible Area Director so that the IESG can appoint the needed Expert during the IESG Evaluation? The IANA considerations exists, is consistent, and appears to be clearly specified. (1.j) Has the Document Shepherd verified that sections of the document that are written in a formal language, such as XML code, BNF rules, MIB definitions, etc., validate correctly in an automated checker? Yes (ABNF in section 10.1). (1.k) The IESG approval announcement includes a Document Announcement Write-Up. Please provide such a Document Announcement Write-Up? Recent examples can be found in the "Action" announcements for approved documents. The approval announcement contains the following sections: Technical Summary Relevant content can frequently be found in the abstract and/or introduction of the document. If not, this may be an indication that there are deficiencies in the abstract or introduction. This document specifies an extension to the Real-time Transport Control Protocol (RTCP) to use unicast feedback to a multicast sender. The proposed extension is useful for single-source multicast sessions such as Source-Specific Multicast (SSM) communication where the traditional model of many-to-many group communication is either not available or not desired. In addition, it can be applied to any group that might benefit from a sender-controlled summarized reporting mechanism. Working Group Summary Was there anything in WG process that is worth noting? For example, was there controversy about particular points or were there decisions where the consensus was particularly rough? There is interest in this work both with AVT and the MBONED community, and solid consensus to publish the draft. Document Quality Are there existing implementations of the protocol? Have a significant number of vendors indicated their plan to implement the specification? Are there any reviewers that merit special mention as having done a thorough review, e.g., one that resulted in important changes or a conclusion that the document had no substantive issues? If there was a MIB Doctor, Media Type or other expert review, what was its course (briefly)? In the case of a Media Type review, on what date was the request posted? The draft fills an important gap and is needed to deployed SSM-based IPTV systems. As a result there is strong interest in seeing it done, and implementations are expected. Personnel Who is the Document Shepherd for this document? Who is the Responsible Area Director? Colin Perkins is the document shepherd. Cullen Jennings is the responsible area director. |
