[linux-dvb] [gorry@erg.abdn.ac.uk: Updated Agenda for the ip-dvb BoF (Wednesday, November 12 at 0900-1130)]

[Emard <emard@softhome.net>]

HI 

Just to get a glance what's going on, those people are actively
discussing the new standards for ip over dvb, here's an except
of their mailing list. Also I have downloaded their spec drafts
(draft-fair-*.txt) from their ftp site... 

I've told them they can join active development here if they like to

IP over MPEG-2/DVB Transport BOF (ipdvb)

Wednesday, November 12 at 0900-1130
===================================

CHAIR:  Gorry Fairhurst <gorry@erg.abdn.ac.uk>

DESCRIPTION:

The MPEG-2 Transport Stream provides a transmission network that has
become widely use to support digital TV broadcast, including: DVB,
ATSC, ISDB-T. These and related standards define a set of commercially
available components that are increasingly being used  to provide a
general-purpose packet transmission network.  MPEG-2 Transport networks
are being used to build IP networks to supplement broadcast TV/audio
services and also to provide one-way and two-way IP-only subnetworks.

This BOF will focus on protocol documents to build a complete IPv4/IPv6
unicast/multicast service, and to define mappings needed to perform
address resolution, etc.
