Dan,I assume that you mean "newly defined behavior" rather than "newly defined messages" in refereing to negotiating the use of the future 4204 modifications.
With respect to the bis, I think just getting the desired / needed changes documented would be a great step forward. Once we understand the scope of the changes, we can decide if the extra work needed to do a full bis is warranted.
Thank you for offering to take on this work as it is clearly needed. Lou On 5/25/2009 3:10 AM, Dan Li wrote:
If you feel so inclined, something that is also worthwhile (possibly even as an alternative) is to author an update to 4204 that specifies behavior for handling unknown messages and allowing multiple config messages. - This would be a worthwhile document no matter what you decide. [dan] Yes, RFC4204 should be updated to specify the unknown message behavior, and CONFIG message can be used to negotiate the usage of the newly defined messages. Should we work on RFC4204bis? Lou
