Folks, The co-authors of ECN L4S ID have been reviewing the correctness of the normative 'Prague' requirements. See https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-tsvwg-ecn-l4s-id-10#section-4.3 This is the first of 2 emails, about 2 of the requirements that we think ought to be reworded a little. If you agree with the rationale, but think the new wording still doesn't capture the requirement well, pls suggest sthg better. If you disagree with the rationale, pls discuss. 4.3. Prerequisite Congestion Response ... CURRENT: o A scalable congestion control MUST reduce or eliminate RTT bias over as wide a range of RTTs as possible, or at least over the typical range of RTTs that will interact in the intended deployment scenario (seeAppendix A.1.5 <https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-tsvwg-ecn-l4s-id-10#appendix-A.1.5> for rationale). PROPOSED: A scalable congestion control MUST eliminate RTT bias as much as possible in the range between the minimum likely RTT and typical RTTs expected in the intended deployment scenario (see Appendix A.1.5 for rationale). RATIONALE: 1/ "eliminate as much as possible" is stronger than "reduce or eliminate". 2/ This requirement was motivated by 'do no harm to others' relative to existing standard (RFC5681 Reno) congestion control. So there is no need to mandate that an L4S implementer does no harm to themselves, which window-based congestion controls tend to do at higher RTT. Of course, this doesn't preclude implementers reducing or eliminating RTT bias for larger than typical RTTs, but it removes any requirement to do so.
