I think there may be a problem here in that "real time" may
suggest to a number of people a level of rigor in timing that's
really not applicable to much of the work the new area is
intended to cover.  I'm enthusiastic about the area;

I am also enthusiastic about the area

not so crazy about its name.

I am also concerned about the name. This is basically (not absolutely!) about what is in and around SIP, and not everything in SIP is in "real-time", with GEOPRIV being one of them. Yet, I believe GEOPRIV should be in this new area as there are many of the same faces in the ECRIT, GEOPRIV and SIP/SIPPING/SIMPLE WGs. This tells me there is a commonality between them such that they ought to be in the same area.

Perhaps something like "Rich Media Apps" Area, shortened to the "Media Area" in discussions.
