The IESG has received a request to consider TCP Slow Start, Congestion
Avoidance, Fast Retransmit, and Fast Recovery Algorithms
<draft-stevens-tcpca-spec-01.txt> as a Best Current Practices RFC.
This document has been reviewed in the IETF, but is not the product of
an IETF Working Group.

Note that this is a second last call. The first last call was for
Proposed Standard status. During the Last Call, a number of the
comments suggested that BCP was a a more appropriate category for this
document.

The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits
final comments on this action. Please send any comments to the
iesg@ietf.org or ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by July 26, 1996.
