[MMUSIC] RFC 4566bis - issue 6 - improper term used

(6)  improper term used

a)
Section 5.6 twice uses the term, "conference", where IMHO, according
to the definitions given in Section 2, the term, "session" should
be used.  This change makes the text better conform with the
classification of the "e=" and "p=" lines on page 9, as well.

The first textual paragraph of Section 5.6, on page 13, says:

   The "e=" and "p=" lines specify contact information for the person
|  responsible for the conference.  This is not necessarily the same
|  person that created the conference announcement.

It should say:

   The "e=" and "p=" lines specify contact information for the person
| responsible for the session. This is not necessarily the same person
|  that created the session announcement.

This seems reasonable, and I propose to accept it with one further change to say "...created the session description".

b)
Another instance of this issue occurs in Section 5.7, at the bottom
of page 14.  There, the RFC says:

o Sessions using an IPv4 multicast connection address MUST also have
      a time to live (TTL) value present in addition to the multicast
      address.  The TTL and the address together define the scope with
| which multicast packets sent in this conference will be sent. TTL
      values MUST be in the range 0-255.  [...]

It should say:

o Sessions using an IPv4 multicast connection address MUST also have
      a time to live (TTL) value present in addition to the multicast
      address.  The TTL and the address together define the scope with
|     which multicast packets sent in this session will be sent.  TTL
      values MUST be in the range 0-255.  [...]

c)
Finally, the last sentence of the second paragraph of Section 5.13,
on page 21,

                                                   [...].  Attribute
   fields can also be added before the first media field; these
"session-level" attributes convey additional information that applies
   to the conference as a whole rather than to individual media.

should say, accordingly:

                                                   [...].  Attribute
   fields can also be added before the first media field; these
"session-level" attributes convey additional information that applies
|  to the session as a whole rather than to individual media.


Again, this looks reasonable. Propose to accept the change.
