Re: Alvaro Retana's Discuss on draft-ietf-rtgwg-backoff-algo-07: (with DISCUSS and COMMENT)

Hi Alvaro, Deborah & Bruno,

Does the most recent version (draft-ietf-rtgwg-backoff-algo-09) resolve the
concerns?
It would be excellent to have this approved before Weds at IETF 101.

I am happy to approve an updated draft being submitted, if necessary,
before IETF starts.

Thanks,
Alia
