The IESG has approved the following document: - 'A Session Description Protocol (SDP) Offer/Answer Mechanism to Enable File Transfer ' <draft-ietf-mmusic-file-transfer-mech-11.txt> as a Proposed Standard This document is the product of the Multiparty Multimedia Session Control Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Cullen Jennings and Jon Peterson. A URL of this Internet-Draft is: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-mmusic-file-transfer-mech-11.txt Technical summary: The document defines extensions to the SDP offer/answer model to enable file transfer as part of SDP-negotiated multimedia sessions. It also specifies using MSRP for the actual file transmission. Working Group summary: The MMUSIC WG has firm consenses on publishing this document as Proposed Standard. Document quality: The document is considered ready for publication. An early interoperability test of independent implementations from various major vendors on an image sharing specification (which uses the file transfer I-D as a basis) took place already in 2007 under the auspices of the GSM Association. The interop event provided useful input for this and other specifications. Personnel: The document shepherd is Joerg Ott, the responsible AD is Cullen Jennings. _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf-announce
