Hi, Pls see inline marked with [ZS]---
While I very much do not want to do anything to delay progress on this, I should note that most aspects of such congestion control mechanisms would not >be specific to RTP, though some implementation details might be. We should attempt to define these algorithms such that they'd be applicable to any flow with similar characteristics and requirements (certainly other media flows), while providing specifics of how they apply to RTP flows.
Some aspects that are developed in this process might be useful in other similar domains as well, such as congestion control of multiple TCP flows between a pair of hosts. I would not explicitly include TCP in this effort at this point to avoid feature creep, but we may want to have a dependent/follow-on effort for TCP.
[ZS] I agree. However I have noted the RTCWEB charter says that WG will 'Define how non media data is transported between clients in a secure and congestion safe way.', so some coordination would be needed.
