I'm trying to parse the final sentence of the change made to RFC 3551.

Essentially this i-d modifies:

"   Audio applications operating under this profile SHOULD, at a minimum,
   be able to send and/or receive payload types 0 (PCMU) and 5 (DVI4).
   This allows interoperability without format negotiation and ensures
   successful negotiation with a conference control protocol."

To become:

"   Audio applications operating under this profile SHOULD, at a minimum,
   be able to send and/or receive payload type 0 (PCMU).
   This allows interoperability without format negotiation and ensures
   successful negotiation with a conference control protocol. Some
   environments MAY make support for PCMU mandatory."

What the final sentence currently says is that some environments provide an option to make support for PCMU mandatory, which implies that other environments do not provide such an option. Neither of those make sense to me and there I believe that cannot be the meaning.

I suspect we are looking for sentence that looks more like "Some environments REQUIRE support for PCMU", but I am not sure if there is an "only" floating around in there somewhere.

Regards

Keith
