Hello,

We're coming up on IETF 67 and our next milestone of approving our
requirements as presented in:

draft-ietf-fecframe-req-00

Since IETF 66 there has been little or no discussion on the list
regarding the reqs, or anything else for that matter. Heck, many other
IETF WG lists find plenty of non-issues to flame about but we can't
even find the time or interest to discuss real topics. ;-)

So, please, read the above req draft and send your feedback here to
the list. Sure, we could move the draft forward with the assumption
that no feedback is positive feedback but that seems a bit
disingenuous and actually pretty boring to be honest.

Cheers,
Greg

I've read the draft.  Since the RMT FEC building block is described as
the basis for FECFRAME, I think there should be a short section on why
the FEC building block alone isn't sufficient for FECFRAME's goals.
Looking at the requirements, the FEC building block meets many of these
already, so it would be valuable to discuss exactly which requirements
require additional mechanisms.  Without this kind of "gap-analysis" of
the existing solution, the real goal of the work is unclear.

Also, a minor comment, I'd prefer if the requirements were numbered in
units of 1's rather than in 10's, but this really doesn't matter.  There
are also two requirements numbered 30 in the 00 version of the draft.

Hi Wesley,

Good point. This kind of consideration would be a good addition to the
draft.=20

The RMT FEC Building Block does indeed provide a lot of what we need.
The main differences are in places where the FEC BB makes assumptions
related to the delivered data being a single 'object' rather than a
collection of streams/packet flows.

Streams/packet flows have some additional properties - such as somewhat
different needs for timely delivery, the fact that packet sizes for
source packets are a property of the stream, not something that the FEC
mechanism can determine as with object delivery and the requirement to
protect multiple streams together.

Now, one approach would be to define a way to map a collection of
streams/packet flows into an 'object' of the kind addressed in the FEC
BB and then concatenate this mapping with what we already have in the
FEC BB.

This might be a little contrived though, so I think what we are aiming
at is essentially a 'stream/packet flow' version of the FEC BB - reusing
as much as possible of course.

As with the FEC BB, there is an open question about exactly what
functionality to specify in the BB and what to delegate to FEC Schemes.
Delegation has the advantage of generality, whereas specification at the
FEC BB has the advantage of introducing greater commonality between
different instantiations of the whole system.

Regards,

Mark

So which direction do we take? Should this be an agenda item for the
upcoming meeting? To stay on track we should have the framework draft
ready for submission after IETF 67 so getting the discussion going now
is best.

I agree that stuffing streaming functions into an object to make it
fit FEC BB is a bit contrived, but can it be done? What functionality
would be compromised? Would this prevent extensibiliy in streaming
functions over having an independent (though inheriting) FECFrame
spec?
