The meaning of "mode" in the H.323 Recommendation?
Paul,
as I was reading through the latest draft of H.323v4, I came across something that has been in the recommendation for a long time, but that I never quite grasped: "mode". The recommendation talks about "mode" and there is a (H.245) message to request a terminal to use a certain "mode" (requestMode), but there is no explanation of what "mode" actually means. Shouldn't there be a definition of "mode" in the Definitions section?
Regards,
Frank

Frank,
I would need to look at the particular section of text or sections :-), but I if it isn't clear, I'd agree that it should be clarified. Unfortunately, it's too late to get such text into H.323 version 4.
If it is a short list of sections, post them here and I suspect folks will be able to get an answer to you before I get back into the office (I'm currently on the road). If the list is lengthy, just send it to me and I'll look at the sections when I get a chance. Do you think this is something that needs clarification in the implementers guide or something to try to get into v5?
Paul
