Date: Mon, 08 May 2000 13:01:25 -0400 The IESG has approved the Internet-Draft 'RTP Payload Format for Real-Time Pointers' as a Proposed Standard. This document is the product of the Audio/Video Transport Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Scott Bradner and Allison Mankin. Technical Summary This document describes an RTP payload format for transporting the coordinates of a dynamic pointer such as might be used during a presentation. The payload format is narrowly scoped; in particular, it is not meant to serve as a general mouse event transmission mechanism. Working Group Summary The payload format was first presented at the Oslo IETF meeting. A number of changes were suggested at that meeting, and incorporated into the format, with the result of making it resolution independent and easier to synchronize with other media formats. There is now good WG consensus for publishing the document. Protocol Quality Vern Paxson reviewed the spec for the IESG.
