During the IETF 126 WG session, a poll indicated support for this work. This message starts a tiptop WG Call for Adoption of:
draft-many-tiptop-quic-profile-03

This Working Group Call for Adoption ends on 2026-09-02

Abstract:
   Deep space communications involve long delays (e.g., the Earth to
   Mars one-way delay is ~4-20 minutes) and often intermittent
   communications.  In this context, the default transport parameters of
   QUIC stacks, tuned for the terrestrial Internet, are not suitable for
   deep space.  This document defines a QUIC profile for deep space.  It
   provides guidance on how to estimate and set transport parameters,
   advice to space mission operators and application developers on how
   to configure QUIC for the deep space use case, and guidance to QUIC
   stack developers on properly exposing the required transport
   parameters in their API.

Please reply to this message and indicate whether or not you support adoption
of this Internet-Draft by the tiptop WG. Comments to explain your preference
are greatly appreciated. Please reply to all recipients of this message and
include this message in your response.

Property Rights (IPR) disclosure obligations described in BCP 79 [2].
