This is an updated version of draft-sandbakken-xcon-bfcp-udp-02 and
due to XCON closing soon, we have changed name and reset the version
count when submitting and associating the draft with Dispatch.

An overview of the changes is listed in the draft:
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-sandbakken-dispatch-bfcp-udp-00#appendix-A.1

Notable changes:
- Most of the discussion so far - in XCON and on the TSV area list -
has dealt with the extension to use UDP as transport, therefore the
motivation for this approach is expanded.
- How congestion control is done is explained explicitly in the text.
- DTLS usage is mandated. Still remaining work on details and adaption to BFCP.
- The Transaction ID syntax and semantics are not changed, used one of
the reserved bits for the Transaction Identifier.

Comments and feedback are most welcome.

Cheers,
-- Tom
