Not that one can't do a good reliable transport on top of an unreliable layer, but people have varying abilities to get it right. Also, an integrated solution might have options for better performance than a user-layered solution would (for example, prioritizing certain packets from a reliable stream like restransmits or acks). As for the need - one of the first real-time apps on the internet was netrek. This predates the web by years (I was in a netrek league in 1991), in the days when a big international company would have a 64Kbps connection. The original TCP-based protocol broke down badly when exposed to congestion and the real net. The solution was to break the data streams into two: one unreliable one for most positional updates, and a reliable stream for game-state-critical data (like "you're dead"). Saying "if you want reliable data, use a proxy" is also silly IMHO. Perhaps some here from or formerly from Adobe can speak to the utility of reliable streams in RTFMP. In VoIP there's a consistent issue with the need to do some things (like DTMF) reliably when your primary streams are unreliable. Witness DTMF and the mess over RFC 2833 vs SIP INFO. > I don't think it is very hard to implement, we could take RFC 5456's sequencing and retry mechanism for example. > or indeed Plan9's IL . -- Randell Jesup randell-ietf@jesup.org
