Re: [aqm] Benoit Claise's Discuss on draft-ietf-aqm-recommendation-09: (with DISCUSS and COMMENT)

Benoit,

We think we have resolved the remaining issues and would like to propose
text that we think could address you DISCUSS:

We think our point was that tuning should not be required
*in*the*normal*case*, not
that they should *never* require tuning (I'm not sure we have created
anything that
is 100% auto-tuning). I'm OK with his phrasing in both cases, but would
suggest the
words "in common use cases" should be added:

  3.  AQM algorithm deployment SHOULD NOT require tuning of initial or
configuration
parameters in common use cases.

4.3 AQM algorithm deployment SHOULD NOT require tuning in common use cases.

Please let us know your thoughts,

Fred & Gorry
