Ok, so a couple of questions:
Gerrit, Gorry: if there is support to take this forward, how close to
ready would you think we are -- are there open issues? Would it be
realistic to think about WGLC in about few months of time? With quick
reading I couldn't identify any contentious issues in the draft, and I
think it points out a relevant problem in TFRC that needs to be
addressed.
Group: would you support this to become a DCCP working group item for
a proposed standard RFC? I will assume that people who respond "Yes"
are committing to participate in reviewing this and the subsequent
versions of the draft.

Dear DCCP'ers.
Gerrit has been working on improving the CCID-3 implementation in
Linux, and this has raised the question of whether we can now
progress the 'sender sends RTT estimate' option that was originally
specified (and recommended) in RFC 5348 and which was submitted
asdraft-renker-dccp-tfrc-rtt-option-00.txt, with accompanying slides
for IETF-72 at:
https://wiki.tools.ietf.org/agenda/72/slides/dccp-3.pdf
We therefore have uploaded
http://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-renker-dccp-tfrc-rtt-option-01.txt
We'd like the WG to consider this minor, but important update as a
suitable piece of work for standardisation - We believe it addresses
several practical issues with the current DCCP CCID3/4 approach.
Please read and send comments to the DCCP list.
Best wishes,
Gorry & Gerrit
