Re: [AVT] Working Group Last Call: draft-ietf-avt-rfc2429-bis-06 and draft-ietf-avt-rfc2190-to-historic-03

Hi Roni and AVT,

This WG last call has concluded. The WG last call received some comments 
from Martin Duerst on the media types list however on version 06:

Thus, this issue is already resolved in version 07.

I agree that this is necessary if one needs to correctly interpret this 
registration template in a stand alone fashion. As it is a minor 
editorial correction that can be done without any issues, I would 
request that the Editor corrected this before we request publication. 
However no new WG last call will be needed and publication request will 
be sent as soon as the new versions are available.

I don't agree with this, I don't think the specification becomes 
significantly easier to read if move to some other chapter. I have 
expressed this some week back and received no comments on the media 
types list. Therefore I propose that we do NO changes in this regard.

Cheers

Magnus
