Bob,

For the record, what you call "Fast Open" was rejected during the Santiago de Chile meeting.

Paul- In trying to think about ways to avoid adding the earlyH245 element to SETUP, I overlooked the fact that it could be used just as well to initiate the Fast Open procedures in a way that was backward compatible. That would permit us to offer both Fast Connect and Fast Open - the called endpoint could accept either one (or would see only the fastStart if it were an older endpoint). The advantage of Fast Open in this case would arise from it's use later on in the call (e.g., to switch to FAX or to redirect audio). -Bob ---------------------------------------------------- Bob Gilman rrg@avaya.com +1 303 538 3868
