[linux-audio-dev] MWPP implementation guide ...

[John Lazzaro]

Hi everyone,

	Just sent off the first draft of the "Implementation Guide"
for MWPP, in time for the deadline for the next IETF meeting. You
can download it as:

http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~lazzaro/sa/pubs/txt/current-guide.txt

	See below for the abstract. A few sections in the main body,
as well as the Appendices, remain to be written, but I decided to send
it off because the completed parts are in pretty good shape, and early
feedback on the direction the document is taking (as the non-normative
companion to the main MWPP document) would be helpful.

	The current plan is to make some minor changes to the
normative MWPP document, in response to comments received since its
September 22 submission, and resubmit it in time for the meeting
deadline for updated documents.  So if you're holding onto any
comments on this document, now is a good time to send them along --
this document can be downloaded as:

 An Implementation Guide to the MIDI Wire Protocol Packetization (MWPP)

           <draft-lazzaro-avt-mwpp-coding-guidelines-00.txt>

                                Abstract

     This memo offers non-normative implementation guidance for the MIDI
     Wire Protocol Packetization (MWPP), an RTP packetization for the
     MIDI command language.  The memo provides a detailed description of
     a sample MWPP application: an interactive MIDI session between two
     parties that send and receive RTP and RTCP flows over unicast UDP
     transport. The Appendices focus on special issues that arise in
     other types of applications: content-streaming applications, multi-
     party applications, applications that use reliable transport such
     as TCP, applications that do not use RTCP, and applications that
     send several MWPP RTP streams in a single session.
