Folks, I support adopting this short draft as a distinct work item for TCPM. Its brevity and the fact that major details already have been discussed in 2008, should allow a rapid progression. There are specific use cases of TCP that become more and more critical for the infrastructure of TCP/IP based internetworks; in particular DNS servers will become more and more dependable on robust TCP implementations that are able to handle a large load of rather short-lived connections. The improved TCP timestamp initialization procedure in draft-gont-tcpm-tcp-timestamps promises to become a useful component in advanced TCP implementations, as experience with open-source implementations already has shown. Therefore, IMO this recommendation is worth a standalone IETF document. I already did a detailed review of the -00 draft version and followed up to the -01. Somehow, I missed the -02, and it looks now like some of my comments on the -01 also have been missed. Thus, I now already have sent to the author a follow-up editorial review of the -03 covering my observations (mostly for sect. 1 and 2; some simply parallels to other documents in progress). If the WG adopts the draft, these details could well be fixed in the first WG version of the draft. Kind regards, Alfred Hönes. -- +------------------------+--------------------------------------------+ | TR-Sys Alfred Hoenes | Alfred Hoenes Dipl.-Math., Dipl.-Phys. | | Gerlinger Strasse 12 | Phone: (+49)7156/9635-0, Fax: -18 | | D-71254 Ditzingen | E-Mail: ah@TR-Sys.de | +------------------------+--------------------------------------------+
