RE: [AVT] Review draft-ietf-avt-avpf-ccm-07

Randell,
Thanks, you are right about the parameter. 

I assume that the default of infinity to this parameter make sense. This
parameter is not important for a unicast point to point call where the
MTU is fixed but for multiple receivers that may have different path MTU
sizes and different overhead.
