with the approval of this document the number of implementations will increase.
Personnel
Dan Romascanu is the Document Shepherd. Gonzalo Camarillo
is the Responsible Area Director.
(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.
I have performed a detailed review of the document and I consider it
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,

took place.
This I-D deals with reporting of jitter buffer metrics.
Appendix A contains a definition of these metrics using the template
defined in RFC 6390.
An SDP review was performed by Christer Holmberg who stated that the document
is ready for submission. A PM-DIR review was performed by Vinayak Hegde and his
comments were considered.
(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.
Yes.

represent the strong concurrence of a few individuals, with others
being silent, or does the WG as a whole understand and agree with it?
The number of active participants in the Working Group is not very high (around
ten). Among the active participants there seems to be solid consensus in
support of this document.
(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.
No issues. Idnits shows no error.
(12) Describe how the document meets any required formal review
criteria, such as the MIB Doctor, media type, and URI type reviews.
An RFC 6360 PM-DIR review was performed by Vinayak Hegde and his comments were
considered. An SDP review was performed by Christer Holmberg who stated that

(13) Have all references within this document been identified as
either normative or informative?
Yes

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).
The document requires from IANA allocations of values in existing registries
which are clearly defined.
(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

Shepherd to validate sections of the document written in a formal
