RE: [ippm] comments on draft-morton-ippm-composition-00.txt



Hi Al,

How do we arrange the way the contribution to the composition draft ?
As a first step, to prepare the version 01 of the draft I propose to send you my definitions of composition metrics. 

Regarding passive metrics, I will propose a definition of a passive one way delay metric based on the Type-P-Spatial-One-way-Delay-Stream defined in draft-stephan-ippm-multimetrics-01.txt.

Regards
Emile
