[XCON] Protocol Action: 'A Framework for Centralized Conferencing' to Proposed Standard
The IESG has approved the following document:
- 'A Framework for Centralized Conferencing '
<draft-ietf-xcon-framework-11.txt> as a Proposed Standard
This document is the product of the Centralized Conferencing Working
Group.
The IESG contact persons are Cullen Jennings and Jon Peterson.
A URL of this Internet-Draft is:

Technical Summary
This document defines the framework for Centralized
Conferencing. The framework allows participants using
various call signaling protocols, such as SIP, H.323,
Jabber and various protocols used in the PSTN, to
exchange media in a centralized unicast conference.
The Centralized Conferencing Framework defines logical
entities and naming conventions, along with a high
level conferencing data model. The framework also
outlines a set of conferencing protocols, which are
complementary to the call signaling protocols, for
building advanced conferencing applications. The
framework binds all the defined components together
for the benefit of builders of conferencing systems.
Working Group Summary
This document is a product of the XCON working group.
It captures some of the most important consensus decisions
in the working group's history, and forms the foundation
of the conference control protocol that XCON will ultimately
publish.
Document Quality
The document has been reviewed for technical quality
by Adam Roach.
The document specifies a framework and important
concepts, but does not define an implementable protocol
(which is a separate deliverable of the XCON working
group). A group of students at Universita' di Napoli
Federico II (Naples University) have implemented their
own protocol based on the concepts in the XCON framework;
however, because no protocol has been formally defined
by XCON yet, interoperability isn't possible. See
https://sourceforge.net/projects/confiance/ for details.
The document itself underwent a detailed review by assigned
reviewers in September of 2005. Detailed reviewers included
David Morgan, Oscar Novo, Roni Even, and Umesh Chandra.
