Dear RTM-ers,

As established, the ALC subgroup has worked on the attached
FEC BB draft. We intend to submit it by Friday.
As this BB also interests other subgroups, we are circulating
it to collect comments.

This draft addresses the following:
 - gives a general description/classification of the FEC codes pertinent to 
RMT.
 - discusses FEC-related information needed in packet fields.
 - addresses security issues.

Please note that this is only the 1-st draft. Things can
be changed later. In particular my guess is that section 3,
that describes packets fields, will be expanded and detailed
in the next revision of this spec.

	cheers,
	Lorenzo Vicisano
