I'll be a Yes when it's resolved. In section 3.2.1. IETF Process and Publication, It is very important to note and understand the IETF Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) policy that requires early disclosures based on personal knowledge from anyone contributing in IETF. The IETF policies associated with IPR are documented in BCP 78 [RFC5378] (related to copyright, including software copyright for example code) and BCP 79 [RFC3979] (related to patent rights). BCP 78 is a single-RFC BCP, so that's correct now, but the base RFC could be reissued or updated in other RFCs included in the BCP, and BCP 79 is a multi-RFC BCP, so citing it as [RFC3979] isn't quite right. A bit further in the same section, in The main part of the IETF process is formally defined in RFC 2026 [RFC2026]. RFC 2418 [RFC2418] describes the WG process, the relation between the IESG and the WG, and the responsibilities of WG chairs and participants. both RFC 2026 and RFC 2418 are part of multi-RFC BCPs (BCP 9 and BCP 25, respectively). My suggestion would be cite all of these by BCP numbers. - Previous comments: These are all nit-level comments. Please do the right thing. In section 3.2.1. IETF Process and Publication, The standard tracks previously allowed for documents of three different maturity classifications, proposed, draft and Internet Standard. Since October 2011 this has been reduced to only two levels: Proposed Standard and Internet Standard [RFC6410]. you might consider describing only the current maturity classifications, unless you expect awareness of draft standards to be of particular use to your target audience. In section 3.3.2. RTP Header The RTP header contains a number of fields. Two fields always require additional specification by the RTP payload format, namely the RTP Timestamp and the marker bit. Certain RTP payload formats also use the RTP sequence number to realize certain functionalities. if you could give an example ("for example, the frobnitz payload format uses the RTP sequence number as a covert channel to subvert network security systems", or something), that would be helpful to me. In section 3.3.3. RTP Multiplexing The first one is separation of media streams of different types or usages, which is accomplished using different RTP sessions. So for example in the common multimedia session with audio and video, RTP commonly multiplexes audio and video in different RTP sessions. To achieve this separation, transport-level functionalities are used, normally UDP port numbers. [deleted down to] For more discussion and consideration of how and when to use the different RTP multiplexing points see [I-D.ietf-avtcore-multiplex-guidelines]. [I-D.ietf-avtcore-multiplex-guidelines] describes the issues with NAT binding keepalives and port exhaustion when using transport-level RTP multiplexing, but there's no hint of those issues here. Maybe i's worth a sentence here that points to the issues that [I-D.ietf-avtcore-multiplex-guidelines] explains? In section 3.4.2.2. Declarative Usage in RTSP and SAP SAP (Session Announcement Protocol) [RFC2974] is used for announcing multicast sessions. Independently of the usage of Source-specific Multicast (SSM) [RFC3569] or Any-source Multicast (ASM), the SDP provided by SAP applies to all participants. All media that is sent to the session must follow the media stream definition as specified by the SDP. This enables everyone to receive the session if they support the configuration. Here SDP provides a one way channel with no possibility to affect the configuration that the session creator has decided upon. Any RTP Payload format that requires parameters for the send direction and which needs individual values per implementation or instance will fail in a SAP session for a multicast session allowing anyone to send. does SAP appear often enough, in practice, to be described here, as if it was in common use and payload designers should keep SAP in mind for new payload specifications? If the answer is "yes", that's fine, but if not, maybe it's worth pointing out that SAP is obsolete/obsolescent? I know you're using it to explain declarative usage, but with no qualifiers, a new payload designer could be forgiven for saying "SAP looks really simple, let's use that!" In section 3.5.2. Different Queuing Algorithms Routers and switches on the network path between an IP sender and a particular receiver can exhibit different behaviors affecting the end-to-end characteristics. One of the more important aspects of this is queuing behavior. Routers and switches have some amount of queuing to handle temporary bursts of data that designated to leave the switch or router on the same egress link. A queue when not empty results in an increased path delay. I wonder if a pointer to a recent description of Bufferbloat would be helpful? I'm still running into lots of people who don't know/believe how much queuing can increase path delay ... In 3.5.3. Quality of Service Using best effort Internet has no guarantees for the paths properties. Quality of Service (QoS) mechanism are intended to provide the possibility to bound the path properties. Where Diffserv [RFC2475] markings effects the queuing and forwarding behaviors of routers, the mechanism provides only statistical guarantees and care in how much marked packets of different types that are entering the network. Flow-based QoS like IntServ [RFC1663] has the potential for stricter guarantees as the properties are agreed on by each hop on the path. it's possible to read this as saying that IntServ is better than DiffServ. Perhaps the last sentence could end with something like "... by trading per-flow state in the network for better performance"? In section 4.1.1. Steps from Idea to Publication Submission of the first version: When one has performed the above one submits the draft as an individual draft. This can be done at any time except the 3 weeks (current deadline at the time of writing, consult current announcements) prior to an IETF meeting. The statement about deadlines is going to be really fragile (we've changed this since I joined the IESG in May). Is it necessary to include the "current" deadline in this document? |

But looking at -11 with its new text, and given the low probability that we reach a new consensus on anything related to IPR in anything that could be called the short-term, I've made this a comment. 3.2.1 says: "Note: These IPR rules applies on what is specified in the RTP Payload format Internet Draft (and later RFC), IPRs that relates to a codec specification from an external body does not require IETF IPR disclosure." That is the subject of a current thread on rtcweb and ipr@ietf.org so I want to check that the IESG agree that the above is correct before we put this out in a new RFC. (I'm not sure myself, but don't want us to contradict what could be an emerging consensus that's different from this, in the unlikely event that such a consensus emerges in the short-term.) Note that this discuss is also slightly different from the apt-x thing, in which case I believe that the codec is not openly published. |

Since that RFC was written, further experience has been gained on the design and specification of RTP payload formats. Several new RTP profiles have been defined, and robustness tools have also been defined, and these need to be considered. So, then, should this document "Update" 2736 ? -- Section 4 -- This document contains a lot of information that seems *way* beyond its scope, talking about how working group meetings work, and that sort of thing. I'm concerned, as are Stephen and Spencer, about that, and I'm not sure the solutions they're suggesting are sufficient. That said, I'm not making this a DISCUSS, and am not blocking publication on this point. I don't think it's a good idea for a technical working group in an IETF technical area to cover all this sort of information in this way. It's written as being specific to the PAYLOAD working group, and yet.... |

For example, we later require a privacy/management/deployment considerations section in all drafts - those will need to be added. |

Why is this the proper type of RFC? Is this type of RFC indicated in the title page header? Informational as indicated in the title page. (2) 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 This document describes guidelines for people who would like to write an RTP payload format specification. There have been changes in this process and this document describes the latest. A document template is also provided. Working Group Summary The document received several reviews on various parts and as a whole. There have been quite a big number of improvements over time, both editorially and technically. Document Quality This document is informational, so does not require an implementation. Several people who have written payload format specs before reviewed the material carefully. Personnel Ali Begen is the document shepherd and Richard Barnes is the responsible AD. (3) Briefly describe the review of this document that was performed by the Document Shepherd. If this version of the document is not ready for publication, please explain why the document is being forwarded to the IESG. There were a number of review stages. The document is ready. (4) Does the document Shepherd have any concerns about the depth or breadth of the reviews that have been performed? No. (5) Do portions of the document need review from a particular or from broader perspective, e.g., security, operational complexity, AAA, DNS, DHCP, XML, or internationalization? If so, describe the review that took place. No. (6) Describe any specific concerns or issues that the Document Shepherd has 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. No concerns. (7) Has each author confirmed that any and all appropriate IPR disclosures required for full conformance with the provisions of BCP 78 and BCP 79 have already been filed. If not, explain why. No IPR disclosures are needed and none were submitted. (8) Has an IPR disclosure been filed that references this document? If so, summarize any WG discussion and conclusion regarding the IPR disclosures. N/A (9) 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? Full WG support. (10) 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 publicly available.) No. (11) Identify any ID nits the Document Shepherd has found in this document. (See http://www.ietf.org/tools/idnits/ and the Internet-Drafts Checklist). Boilerplate checks are not enough; this check needs to be thorough. ID nits tool lists a few things. There is no 2119 keyword usage in this document as explained in the header. The (12) Describe how the document meets any required formal review criteria, such as the MIB Doctor, media type, and URI type reviews. There are no such reviews needed. (13) Have all references within this document been identified as either normative or informative? They are all informative. (14) 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 plan for their completion? No normative reference exists. (15) Are there downward normative references references (see RFC 3967)? If so, list these downward references to support the Area Director in the Last Call procedure. N/A (16) Will publication of this document change the status of any existing RFCs? Are those RFCs listed on the title page header, listed in the abstract, and discussed in the introduction? If the RFCs are not listed in the Abstract and Introduction, explain why, and point to the part of the document where the relationship of this document to the other RFCs is discussed. If this information is not in the document, explain why the WG considers it unnecessary. No replacement of an existing document. (17) Describe the Document Shepherd's review of the IANA considerations section, especially with regard to its consistency with the body of the document. Confirm that all protocol extensions that the document makes are associated with the appropriate reservations in IANA registries. Confirm that any referenced IANA registries have been clearly identified. Confirm that newly created IANA registries include a detailed specification of the initial contents for the registry, that allocations procedures for future registrations are defined, and a reasonable name for the new registry has been suggested (see RFC 5226). There are no IANA considerations here. (18) List any new IANA registries that require Expert Review for future allocations. Provide any public guidance that the IESG would find useful in selecting the IANA Experts for these new registries. N/A (19) Describe reviews and automated checks performed by the Document Shepherd to validate sections of the document written in a formal language, such as XML code, BNF rules, MIB definitions, etc. None was performed as it was not needed. |
