Dear colleagues For your information. Best regards, Simao -----Original Message----- From: Aaron Falk [mailto:falk@isi.edu] Sent: 27 June 2003 21:21 Subject: DCCP design review in Vienna The Datagram Congestion Control Protocol (DCCP) is holding a protocol design review at the Vienna IETF. DCCP is a new transport protocol offering congestion control to (largely multimedia) flows which do not require the reliability of TCP. The charter page is at [1]. More information on the motivation for the working group can be found at [2]. This working group is following an agressive schedule of about 18 months, hoping to publish the spec this November. The three specification documents draft-ietf-dccp-spec draft-ietf-dccp-ccid2 draft-ietf-dccp-ccid3 are fairly stable and we are nearing completion of an expert review of the documents. (There will be a revision of the drafts before the IETF to incorporate some of the expert reviewer comments. Links to current versions can always be found on the dccp charter page.) We are hoping that, by holding a design review at this time, we will surface issues which may reveal themselves to the larger IETF community. Interested folks -- particularly from potential user communities -- are invited to attend. --aaron (dccp wg chair) [1] http://www.ietf.org/html.charters/dccp-charter.html [2] http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-dccp-problem-00.txt

H.323 poster
by okubo＠MXZ.MESH.NE.JP 24 Jun '03

24 Jun '03

Dear SG16 experts, At the last month SG16 meeting, we discussed the opportunity to produce the subject poster as part of the ITU-T promotion. Here is a relevant record of the WP2 report. ---------- 3.1.10 Promotion activities in TD-11/PLEN WP2 will coordinate to produce the "H.323 poster." Mr. Paul Jones undertakes this coordination role. Volunteers are solicited, particularly those who are good at arts. We will try to produce a draft by the end of July 2003. ---------- This is to solicit volunteers to get this ITU-T poster done. Anyone who is willing to contribute is requested to get in touch with Mr. Paul Jones <paulej(a)packetizer.com>. One of the actions could be to collect similar posters from which we can get some hints. At the Bruges meeting one year ago, we received TIPHON T-shirt illustrating its architecture. Another could be to list strengths of H.323 by words. -- Best regards, OKUBO Sakae e-mail: sokubo(a)waseda.jp Visiting Professor Graduate School of Science and Engineering Waseda University ******************************************************************* YRP Office GITI, Waseda University YRP Ichibankan 312 Tel: +81 46 847 5406 3-4 Hikarinooka, Yokosuka-shi, Kanagawa-ken Fax: +81 46 847 5413 239-0847 Japan *******************************************************************

Hi Gunnar et al, I have added the TIA and SG16 lists to this thread. Here is the SDP that I propose for the "PSTN text format" indicator. If this is OK with you and the group, it can be bundled into the BCP draft by Andreas and Erik, and added to the V.ToIP text. Ideally, the definition of the MIME text/t140 should have a parameter indicating whether the format is derived from or converted to a PSTN format. If this were so, then we would use a boolean variable in the format-specific attribute, 'fmtp'. However, I do not propose that we change the definition of the MIME text/t140 because of unnecessary logistics and effort. In lieu of the 'fmtp' attribute in SDP, I propose that we use the 'gpmd' attribute (http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-rajeshkumar-mmusic-gpmd-03.txt) which is isomorphic to the 'fmtp' attribute but which affords more flexibility since it can be used without the inclusion of the corresponding parameter in the MIME definition. The referenced internet draft is in last call. You would use 'gpmd' to associate a boolean pstncnv=yes or no with the RTP payload type for RFC 2793 text. Omission of this parameter would imply a value of 'no', therefore it is incumbent on the PSTN-IP media gateway to provide this indication. The IP text phone can just omit this indication in the SDP it creates, but it must be able to interpret this parameter generated by a PSTN media gateway. A value of 'yes' implies that the RFC 2793 stream is converted into a PSTN text telephone (TTY/TDD) stream. At call establishment, the media gateway need not know the format of the PSTN text telephone device (e.g Baudot, EDT, native V.18 etc.) that will use this capability. So, if the creator of the SDP is a media gateway, one of the examples in the BCP document will become: m=text 11000 RTP/AVP 98 a=rtpmap:98 t140/1000 a=gpmd:98 pstncnv=yes The second example in the BCP document would become: m=text 11000 RTP/AVP 98 100 a=rtpmap:98 t140/1000 a=rtpmap:100 red/1000 a=fmtp:100 98/98 a=gpmd:98 pstncnv=yes You would need to register the boolean 'pstncnv' with the ICANN. You are free to substitute 'fmtp' in place of 'gpmd' in the example above if you choose to change the MIME text/t140 to include the 'pstncnv' parameter. If you do so, one of the examples above will become: m=text 11000 RTP/AVP 98 a=rtpmap:98 t140/1000 a=fmtp:98 pstncnv=yes Best Regards, Rajesh Kumar At 08:39 AM 6/20/2003 +0200, Gunnar Hellström wrote: >Thanks Rajesh for a well motivated proposal. >My first reaction is positive. > >It means that the only element introduced for IP text phones is to recognize >a Gateway indicator in the SDP, and show that to the user during the call. > >And the IP user should understand and react with caution in throwing big >chunks of text on the call. > >It is not nice to request understanding of new symbols in the user interface >from the user, but in this case I think it is useful.

At call establishment, the media gateway need not know the format of the PSTN text telephone device (e.g Baudot, EDT, native V.18 etc.) that will use this capability. So, if the creator of the SDP is a media gateway, one of the examples in the BCP document will become: m=text 11000 RTP/AVP 98 a=rtpmap:98 t140/1000 a=gpmd:98 pstncnv=yes The second example in the BCP document would become: m=text 11000 RTP/AVP 98 100 a=rtpmap:98 t140/1000 a=rtpmap:100 red/1000 a=fmtp:100 98/98 a=gpmd:98 pstncnv=yes You would need to register the boolean 'pstncnv' with the ICANN. You are free to substitute 'fmtp' in place of 'gpmd' in the example above if you choose to change the MIME text/t140 to include the 'pstncnv' parameter. If you do so, one of the examples above will become: m=text 11000 RTP/AVP 98 a=rtpmap:98 t140/1000 a=fmtp:98 pstncnv=yes Best Regards, Rajesh Kumar At 08:39 AM 6/20/2003 +0200, Gunnar Hellström wrote: >Thanks Rajesh for a well motivated proposal. >My first reaction is positive. > >It means that the only element introduced for IP text phones is to recognize >a Gateway indicator in the SDP, and show that to the user during the call. > >And the IP user should understand and react with caution in throwing big >chunks of text on the call. > >It is not nice to request understanding of new symbols in the user interface >from the user, but in this case I think it is useful.

Dear SG16 experts, As decided at the October 2002 meeting of SG16, the subject FTP site for system experts is in the process of moving from PictureTel (now Polycom) to ITU. All of the files in <http://standard.pictel.com/ftp/avc-site/> are also available at the following place: <http://ftp3.itu.int/av-arch/avc-site/> or <ftp://avguest:Avguest@ftp3.itu.int/av-arch/avc-site> Please note that the setting of user: avguest, password: Avguest is needed for FTP access (but not for HTTP) For uploading your document, please drop it at <ftp://avguest:Avguest@ftp3.itu.int/av-arch/avc-site/Incoming> user: avguest, password: Avguest and advise S Okubo <sokubo(a)waseda.jp> or P Jones <paulej(a)packetizer.com>, otherwise post your message at the mailinglist <itu-sg16(a)external.cisco.com>. Please advise the above persons of any problem you would find. Both of the FTP sites will be running for a week or two, then the PictureTel FTP site will be discontinued. Using this opportunity, I would like to thank Polycom (PcitureTel) for its support of this essential tool for the system standardization in ITU-T SG16 since early 1998, particularly Messrs. Bob Weber, Patrick Luthi, David Lindbergh, Martin Jacobsen and others who have administered the avc-site. -- Best regards, OKUBO Sakae e-mail: sokubo(a)waseda.jp Visiting Professor Graduate School of Science and Engineering Waseda University ******************************************************************* YRP Office GITI, Waseda University YRP Ichibankan 312 Tel: +81 46 847 5406 3-4 Hikarinooka, Yokosuka-shi, Kanagawa-ken Fax: +81 46 847 5413 239-0847 Japan *******************************************************************

FYI. Blame the two-year publication interval on me. -------- Original Message -------- Subject: [Megaco] RFC 3525 on Gateway Control Protocol Version 1 Date: Mon, 09 Jun 2003 09:58:49 -0700 From: rfc-editor(a)rfc-editor.org To: IETF-Announce: ; CC: rfc-editor(a)rfc-editor.org, megaco(a)ietf.org A new Request for Comments is now available in online RFC libraries. RFC 3525 Title: Gateway Control Protocol Version 1 Author(s): C. Groves, M. Pantaleo, T. Anderson, T. Taylor, Editors Status: Standards Track Date: June 2003 Mailbox: Christian.Groves(a)ericsson.com.au, Marcello.Pantaleo(a)eed.ericsson.se, tlatla(a)verizon.net, taylor(a)nortelnetworks.com Pages: 213 Characters: 439674 Obsoletes: 3015 I-D Tag: draft-ietf-megaco-3015corr-03.txt URL: ftp://ftp.rfc-editor.org/in-notes/rfc3525.txt This document defines the protocol used between elements of a physically decomposed multimedia gateway, i.e., a Media Gateway and a Media Gateway Controller. The protocol presented in this document meets the requirements for a media gateway control protocol as presented in RFC 2805. This document replaces RFC 3015. It is the result of continued cooperation between the IETF Megaco Working Group and ITU-T Study Group 16. It incorporates the original text of RFC 3015, modified by corrections and clarifications discussed on the Megaco E-mail list and incorporated into the Study Group 16 Implementor's Guide for Recommendation H.248. The present version of this document underwent ITU-T Last Call as Recommendation H.248 Amendment 1. Because of ITU-T renumbering, it was published by the ITU-T as Recommendation H.248.1 (03/2002), Gateway Control Protocol Version 1.
