Hi Spiros, I don't think that you are miss-using the draft, you are simply applying the definitions under circumstances that are somewhat different from the usual IPPM active measurement set-up, with instruments only present at the receivers. Perhaps you can make measurements more ubiquitously as a single-point measure, and the information you derive may out-weigh the errors between the true wire time and the RTP time stamp, as long as you are clear about *what* was measured (both network and source effects on transmission time). From RFC 2330, section 10.2: When appropriate, metrics should be defined in terms of wire times rather than host endpoint times, so that the metric's definition highlights the issue of separating delays due to the host from those due to the network.
