      <div>A couple of suggestions:</div>
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>- This uses RTCP Payload-specific feedback messages, with the
        Application Layer feedback (AFB) FMT parameter and a 4 octet
        unique identifier (REMB) inside the feedback section. The AFB
        message was intended to be private for a particular application,
        and not something that should be standard. This would be better
        registered as a new FMT value within the payload-specific
        feedback messages. Doing so would also save 4 octets, since you
        wouldn't need to unique identifier field.</div>
    </blockquote>
    Agreed; we published this for experimentation, in order to get some
    experience with it without breaking any standards; its usage is
    "private" in the sense of being limited to the people participating
    in the experiment.<br>
    <br>
    I think the draft said so, but I may not have been clear enough;
    will try to improve.<br>
    Once we have rough consensus that this approach makes sense, I think
    we should give the "real" format as a new FMT value, and document
    this format in an appendix as "for experimentation in advance of FMT
    assignment". Let's hope we can get it done soon.<br>
    <br>
    Advice sought for IANA considerations:<br>
    <br>
    Offhand, I can't find the registry for FMT values; RFC 4585 section
    6.3 seems to specify 5 values (out of 32 possible codes), with RFC
    5104 section 4.3 assigning 4 more. It's a small field, so I really
    don't want to waste codepoints.<br>
    <br>
    Section 9 of RFC 4585 says that the rule for new entries is
    "specification required" according to RFC 2434, which is "an RFC or
    other permanent and readily available reference", which would
    preclude I-D.<br>
    <br>
    There's also (to my mind) an open question on whether this should be
    a Payload Specific message (206) or a Transport Layer Feedback
    Message (205). Any reason not to go with a Transport Layer feedback
    message?<br>
    <br>
    <blockquote
      cite="mid:6F1F09D8-B472-4348-BA39-354DCBA77E0A@csperkins.org"
      type="cite">
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>- You have an SSRC feedback field but don't use the SSRC of
        media source. Would it make sense to use the SSRC of media
        source to hold the first entry of the SSRC feedback field, and
        put the others in the payload? Again, saves 4 octets, and avoids
        a wasted field.</div>
    </blockquote>
    If there's no equipment that tries to "generically" parse these
    messages, we can certainly do so! Since RFC 5104 section 4.2.2.2
    seemed to not take the opportunity to skip this field, we thought
    we'd follow precedent until we felt safe.<br>
