Floor control is a means to manage joint or exclusive access to
shared resources in a (multiparty) conferencing environment. Thereby,
floor control complements other functions -- such as conference and
media session setup, conference policy manipulation, and media
control -- that are realized by other protocols.

This document specifies the Binary Floor Control Protocol (BFCP).
BFCP is used between floor participants and floor control servers,
and between floor chairs (i.e., moderators) and floor control
servers.

This document obsoletes RFC 4582.

This document is a product of the Binary Floor Control Protocol Bis Working Group of the IETF.

This is now a Proposed Standard.

STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet Standards Track
protocol for the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions
for improvements.  Please refer to the current edition of the Official
Internet Protocol Standards (https://www.rfc-editor.org/standards) for the 
standardization state and status of this protocol.  Distribution of this 
memo is unlimited.
