Re: [multipathtcp] I-D Action: draft-ietf-mptcp-rfc6824bis-06.txt

Hi all,

There are no significant changes in this version, just revving the draft
and absorbing some experimental option text re IANA considerations which we
had missed from the previous revision (thanks, Med).

Any significant changes re proxies etc are for discussion in Berlin.

Best regards,
Alan
