------- Comment #2 from Laurent Glayal  2009-01-15 15:53 UTC -------
RTCP messages are scheduled to limit bandwidth usage. When sending a BYE we are
indicating no more RTP will be sent for the indicated SSRC. On a SSRC collision
beetween two peers A and B: 

If B sends a BYE 5 seconds after finding the collision due to scheduling of
RTCP packets the peer A will still wait for data during 5 seconds while we
already stopped streaming using 'old' SSRC.
Sending BYE packets as soon as possible is a fair way to indicate peer it can
free some resources or discard som data.

#6.3.7 indicates BYE can be sent immediatly if the group size estimate members
is less than 50.
