This memo obsoletes RFC 2793; it describes how to carry real-time
text conversation session contents in RTP packets.  Text conversation
session contents are specified in ITU-T Recommendation T.140.

One payload format is described for transmitting text on a separate
RTP session dedicated for the transmission of text.

This RTP payload description recommends a method to include
redundant text from already transmitted packets in order to reduce
the risk of text loss caused by packet loss.
