Searching for "Congestion Control Expert" on google shows no real matches at all before
this discussion thread. I could find "Unicorn expert" though. I wonder if those would make a good TSV AD.

Would you mind to describe how to evaluate someone to meet the bar to be CCE in your opinion ? 
I ask because starting to populate this new term into googles cache doesn't mean its clear
whether the community would even have a common idea of what it would mean. Independent of
whether the community thinks its a good bar for TSV-AD in the first place.
