There are 2 Internet Drafts for re-ECN, which have recently expired. These are a description of the protocol: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-briscoe-tsvwg-re-ecn-tcp-07 and one described as a "motivation" for re-ECN: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-briscoe-tsvwg-re-ecn-tcp-motivation-00 which is actually more of an architecture for re-ECN or a framework for using the protocol. These 2 documents do need a re-write. I would hope that if the BOF goes ahead then members of the community would want to shape these new documents, be they direct replacements or entirely new documents. At the very least we need a draft that properly documents the motivation for congestion awareness. In the meantime the expired drafts can be updated only as a keep-alive. I would like to take the opportunity to re-name the motivation to something more accurate, so propose renaming it to "A Framework for adding Congestion Accountability to TCP/IP". Is there anyone who wants to contribute to new documents? It could be with providing content, editing, scoping, etc. Alan
