This draft has been discussed a bit here and in TSVWG:

http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-welzl-ecn-benefits-01

As I understand, the IAB has also discussed it a bit, and would
be happy if this was something that an IETF working group
published.  I believe the TSVWG chairs also discussed this and
would be fine if the AQM working group adopted it.

That said, there have only been a small number of mail list
comments here about it, and we (unfortunately) didn't devote
much of any meeting time to it in Toronto.

So, *please* let us know your thoughts on this in the next few
weeks.  I believe we would try to complete it relatively quickly
(e.g. 6 months) as an Informational RFC, assuming there is
consensus and AD approval to add the milestone.

I personally would like to see some stronger support for it from
this working group in order to feel good about adopting it, though
I think it is correct and may be "motherhood and apple pie" to
many of us.
