Re: [Tsvwg] Re: Last Call: draft-ietf-tsvwg-cc-alt (Specifying New Congestion Control Algorithms) to BCP

     For other guidelines, i.e., (2), (5), (6), and (7), the author
     must perform the suggested evaluations and provide recommended
     analysis.  Evidence that
     the proposed mechanism has significantly more problems than those of
     TCP should be a cause for concern in approval for widespread
     deployment in the global Internet.

Looks OK to me.  I have incorporated it, modulo comments from Sally.

As for the non-BE stuff: This document is a no-op.  But, why is that an
issue?  The IETF would have to grapple with the non-BE case just as it
does today (i.e., without a set of guidelines).  This one document does
not need to solve all the world's problems.  If you want to write a
document about how the IETF should handle non-BE congestion control
proposals, I think that'd be fine.  And, again, I am not hearing outcry
on this point so I think the document is fine (even if the consensus on
this one point is not completely 'smooth').

Thanks,
allman
