Dear WP2 Experts,
I want to let everyone know that all of the documents and the final report for the Q12/16 meeting has been posted to the meeting directory here: http://ftp3.itu.ch/av-arch/avc-site/2005-2008/0806_Cha/
We made good progress at the meeting, reaching agreements on terminology, fundamental terminal architecture, and protocol syntax specification language.
It was decided that we would use XML and XML Schema for the protocols we define as part of AMS. Of course, XML can produce some very large messages. As we prepare for the next meeting, I would encourage you to explore the various compression methods for XML. I have some compression results for some of the EXI options and zlib, which you might find interesting:

I would again like to thank Mr. Tyler Johnson for kindly hosting this meeting in Chapel Hill and to the University of North Carolina for being such a gracious host.
Best Regards,
Paul E. Jones
