Yes, something light-weight like that, when technical errata that affect the mechanisms exist.

Ok;

For cubic and CTCP there are some (expired) drafts, at least:

http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-sridharan-tcpm-ctcp-02

http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-rhee-tcpm-cubic-02

I think the only ietf draft so far describing FACK is

http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-dukkipati-tcpm-tcp-loss-probe-01#section-2.2
