On TD26 - Fast TCS and M/S negotiation in H.323v4

[Paul Long]

Paul,

Unfortunately, I wasn't in Osaka. Would it be asking too much to ask what
problem this was supposed to fix? Maybe we can come up with a fix that won't
break something else. That would be the ideal solution.

Paul,

We agreed at the Osaka meeting to allow a SETUP to contain both the
fastStart and h245Control, but it has not been officially approved by
the
ITU.

As it stands right now, I don't think I can agree to include it in
H.323v4
on the grounds that it breaks backward compatibility with V2-- I just
don't
see a clean solution here.

I'm opening to hearing more suggestions, but as you pointed out, there
are
two issues:
  1) H.323v2 states explicitly that it is illegal
  2) There is no way to know what version to destination EP is before
     sending this illegal message

Paul
