[AVT] New draft-ietf-avt-mpeg4-simple-07

[[e-mail]]

Dear all,

This is to let you know that I just submitted 
draft-ietf-avt-mpeg4-simple-07 for upload to the IETF. For your 
convenience I attached the draft to this email.

Compared to -06 there are several editorial improvements. In addition, all 
comments provided by Colin are incorporated with one small difference. 
Colin suggested the following text on interleaving in 3.2.3.2 (page 17):

    If the "constantDuration" parameter is not present, then Access Units
    are assumed to have a variable duration. In this case, the transmitter
    MUST use the AU-Index to encode the index information required for
    re-ordering, and the receiver MUST use that value to determine the
    index of the first AU in the RTP packet. ...

I changed this to the following text, in order to accomodate "early 
implementations" that do not use the constantDuration parameter when 
transmitting constant duration AUs. 

   If the "constantDuration" parameter is not present, then Access 
   Units are assumed to have a variable duration, unless the AU-Index 
   is present and coded with the value 0 in each RTP packet. When 
   transmitting Access Units of variable duration, then the 
   "constantDuration" parameter MUST NOT be present, and the 
   transmitter MUST use the AU-Index to encode the index information 
   required for re-ordering, and the receiver MUST use that value to 
   determine the index of each AU in the RTP packet. ...

From my perspective the document is ready now. All known comments are 
incorporated (Colin and Steve thanks for your help !) and therefore I 
think we are done, unless any further issues are identified. 

Best regards / Groeten,

Jan
