Hi,

Someone earlier suggested "Traffic Management". While it can most  
certainly be argued this would not be a perfect name either (or other  
names would be closer to "perfection"), is there a good argument I am  
missing for why "COS" is obviously better (or more "good enough")  
than "Traffic Management"? (considering we want to capture both  
Diffserv and ECN/PCN use of EXP field)

Thanks

Francois
