Abstract


   It has been observed that specifications of new RTP payload formats
   often forget to register themselves in the IANA registry "RTP Payload
   Formats Media Types".  In practice this has no real impact.  One
   reason is that the Media Types registry is the crucial registry to
   register any Media Type to establish the media type used to
   identified the format in various signaling usage.

   This document resolves the situation by first updating the RTP
   Payload Format Media Type registry to include all the known RTP
   payload formats at the time of writing, then it closes this IANA
   Registry for any future registration.  Beyond instructing IANA to
   close this registry, the instructions to authors in RFC 8088 are
   updated to reflect this.
