I think it would be really useful to get someone like Lars or the chair
of the tcpm working group to comment on how much congestion control
experience we're talking about as a requirement.
When I read Lars's messages, I'm not actually sure he and I are
disagreeing.
There's a lot of things it could mean for the IESG to have congestion
control expertise.
