David, Thanks for the review of draft-edwards-mime-mxf-01.txt!
I was wondering which mentions of "essence" in Section 3.1 you thought would benefit most from explanation of essence and examples (such as "Interoperability considerations" or "Applications which use this media type", etc.) The SMPTE definition of essence is "The raw video, audio, and data streams to be contained and described by MXF." (SMPTE 377M) SMPTE currently has standards for the mapping of these essence types to the MXF generic container: MPEG, DV-DIF, Uncompressed Pictures, SDTI-CP, D-10, D-11, AES3 audio, Broadcast Wave audio, and A-Law audio.

We advise the General Area Director (i.e. the IETF/IESG chair) by providing more in depth reviews than he could do himself of documents that come up for final decision in IESG telechat. I was selected as the GenART member to review this document. Below is my review, which was written specifically with an eye to the GenART process, but since I believe that it will be useful to have these comments more widely distributed, others outside the GenART group are included. This review was done as part of IETF Last Call. Review criteria: "Is this document a reasonable contribution to the area of Internet engineering which it covers? If not, what changes would make it so?" This draft is basically ready for publication as an Informational RFC, but has nits that should be fixed before publication. I found one minor nit - Section 3.1 uses the phrases "compressed essence types" and "essence types". That terminology should be explained and the explanation should include a few specific examples of such types. Thanks, --David ---------------------------------------------------- David L.
