There does not seem to be a standard name for the set of synchronized
RTP sessions. In SIP, they call it a SIP session (how confusing can that
be). In Farsight2, we call it a conference (but it may not be the
greatest name). I think you can just write something like "all RTP
sessions defined in the same Jingle channel should be synchronized" or
something to that effect.
