Justification for the specific reference:
|
|
This reference describes how to transport real-time text conversation session contents in RTP packets. Text conversation session contents are specified in ITU-T Recommendation T.140. This RFC updates RFC 2793, which was the basis for the previous version of H.323 Annex G. The new RFC adds clarity and better guidance for implementers, along with a new negotiated parameter to control text transmission rates.

|
The degree of stability or maturity of the document:
|
|
Standard. RFC 4013 was published in June 2005 and largely exists to clarify RFC 2793 and to provide better guidance to implementers. Current standards status of this document can be found at ftp://ftp.isi.edu/in-notes/std/std1.txt

9.7 The Internet Engineering Steering Group (IESG) is responsible for ongoing maintenance of the RFCs when the need arises. Comments on RFCs and corresponding changes are accommodated through the existing standardization process.
9.8 Each revision of a given RFC has a different RFC number, so no confusion is possible. All RFCs always remain available on-line. An index of RFCs and their status may be found in the IETF archives at http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc.html.

Other (for any supplementary information):
|
|
References should always be made to RFC numbers (and not by other designations such as STD, BCP, etc.). References not to be made to documents referred to as "Internet Drafts" or RFCs categorized as "Historic". Normative references should not be made to RFCs that are not standards, for example, "Informational" and "Experimental" RFCs.
