Notice of the Portland meeting in August 2000

[Sakae OKUBO]

Sasha,

As you stated, the flag bit in the session field of Annex E/H.323 messages
shall be set to the same value as the CRV in the Q.931 message found in the
payload.

Would you like to propose clarifying text?  I'll put it into the IG for
review in Portland.

Paul
