Folks-

We have just submitted a new version of the Early Retransmit I-D.  We
presented this in Chicago and the WG seemed to be in agreement to take
this on as a WG item.  We did not release this version as a WG version
because I don't think we ever verified this decision on the list
(although, I might mis-remember this because I obvious have no chair
duties for this draft).  

We generally cleaned things up in this version.  The big addition is a
packet-based version of ER for implementations that want more precision
and are willing to hold a little state about packet boundaries on the
right side of the window.

We welcome comments!

The draft should be in the usual places soon and is already here:
