Re: [Sframe] Status of the SFRAME WG

Hi Murray,

Thanks for checking in.  To be clear, work is still happening.  See the
SFrame vs SPacket discussion at AVTCORE at IETF 111.  There have been some
discussions among a few of us following on that, sporadically because of
summer holidays.  I’ll try to gather up some notes from that and start some
conversations on the mailing list.

My read on the state of things is:

1. We should probably go ahead and adopt draft-omara-sframe and
draft-barnes-sframe-mls.   There is shipping code using both of them, and
pretty broad agreement on the contents.  In fact, I don’t expect a ton of
changes needed before WGLC; but of course, other folks in the WG should
have their say.

2. We need to figure out what the story is with regard to carrying SFrame
in RTP and signaling it in SDP.  Sergio made a proposal in AVTCORE; I have
some different ideas that I need to write up for the group.  We should
probably have a virtual interim to get aligned on a path.

3. As background for that discussion, folks should be aware that the W3C
WebRTC WG is considering taking up work that would leverage the RTP/SDP
work, so there is a consumer lined up to add some shipping pressure.

End of brain dump.  Interested if others have a different read.

Cheers,
—Richard
