The IESG has no problem with the publication of 'Adding Acknowledgement Congestion Control to TCP' <draft-floyd-tcpm-ackcc-05.txt> as an Informational RFC. The IESG would also like the IRSG or RFC-Editor to review the comments in the datatracker (https://datatracker.ietf.org/public/pidtracker.cgi?command=view_id&dTag=15946&rfc_flag=0) related to this document and determine whether or not they merit incorporation into the document. Comments may exist in both the ballot and the comment log. The IESG contact person is Lars Eggert. A URL of this Internet-Draft is: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-floyd-tcpm-ackcc-05.txt The process for such documents is described at http://www.rfc-editor.org/indsubs.html. Thank you, The IESG Secretary Technical Summary This document describes a possible congestion control mechanism for acknowledgement traffic (ACKs) in TCP. The document specifies an end-to-end acknowledgement congestion control mechanism for TCP that uses participation from both TCP hosts, the TCP data sender and the TCP data receiver. This acknowledgement congestion control mechanism is being specified for further evaluation by the network community. Working Group Summary (This document is an independent submission to the RFC Editor.) Document Quality (This document is an independent submission to the RFC Editor.) Personnel Lars Eggert (lars.eggert@nokia.com) reviewed this document for the IESG. RFC Editor Note The IESG thinks that this work is related to IETF work done in WG TCPM, but this does not prevent publishing. IESG Note The content of this RFC was at one time considered by the IETF, and therefore it may resemble a current IETF work in progress or a published IETF work. This RFC is not a candidate for any level of Internet Standard. The IETF disclaims any knowledge of the fitness of this RFC for any purpose and in particular notes that the decision to publish is not based on IETF review for such things as security, congestion control, or inappropriate interaction with deployed protocols. The RFC Editor has chosen to publish this document at its discretion. Readers of this RFC should exercise caution in evaluating its value for implementation and deployment. See RFC 3932 for more information. _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf-announce
