The general sense I have had from the developers of this technology is that you absolutely do *not* want it in the kernel. The reason is that each individual application will have its own, unique requirements for the RTP data stream, and that the RTP implementation therefore needs to be tightly integrated into the application. By contrast, RTP itself places minimal requirements upon the lower layers. OTOH, what *would* potentially be useful would be an implementation of RTP/UDP/IP header compression. -GAWollman -- Garrett A.
