	Title		: Requirements for the QoS negotiation at the 
                          Application Layer

This document identifies requirements for an end-to-end negotiation
of the Quality of Service (QoS) aspects of each media component of a
multi-media session at the application level, before requesting the
transport layer for bearer setup.
It is believed that in the future, QoS will be one of the major
differentiators in the context of a new generation of multi-media
services based on the IP technology. As such, QoS cannot be
considered anymore as a matter of bearer handling only, but it has
also to include the application layer. Moreover, QoS has to be
considered as part of the media component description, and
therefore, to be negotiated or re-negotiated during the session
life.

NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.
