The following errata report has been submitted for RFC4696,
"An Implementation Guide for RTP MIDI".

--------------------------------------
Type: Technical
Reported by: John Lazzaro <[email-masked]>

Section: 2

Original Text
-------------
In Figure 1:

rtp_maxptime=0; guardtime=44100; render=synthetic; rinit="audio/asc";

In Figure 2:

rtp_ptime=0; rtp_maxptime=0; render=synthetic; rinit="audio/asc";

Corrected Text
--------------
In Figure 1:

rtp_maxptime=0; guardtime=44100; render=synthetic; rinit=audio/asc;

In Figure 2:

rtp_ptime=0; rtp_maxptime=0; render=synthetic; rinit=audio/asc;

Notes
-----
The double-quotes around audio/asc in the session descriptions shown
in Figures 1 and 2 should not exist; the Corrected Text version shows the
legal syntax for rinit assigns.  This bug also appears in numerous examples
in RFC 4695, an RFC that will soon be obsolete, and replaced with a new
RFC whose examples also have this bug fixed (I'm an author of the
RFCs).  As we are not aware of implementations that use the rinit parameter,
we do not expect interoperability concerns due to the buggy examples.
