Subject: [re-ECN] New Problem Statement Document

Hi all, 

Toby asked for input regarding the problem statement document and here
is our input. Alissa and I have tried to produce a short document, see
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-tschofenig-conex-ps-00, that aims to
avoid going too much into the solution space. 

Our approach was the following: 

* capture what the problem is (i.e., high traffic consumption by a very
small number of users causes problems for operators)
* briefly describe what is being done by operators today to deal with
that problem
* point to some other related ongoing activities in the IETF that the
reader might want to be interested in. 
* conclude with an outlook of what is difficult to do with the tools
available today

Ciao
Hannes

PS: When working on the document I was wondering why a problem statement
document is actually needed at all given that most of proponents are
only interested in a very specific solution. The case seems to be a bit
similar to LEDBAT.
