Dear all,

The document editor has updated the Source Quench I-D to make stronger 
recommendations deprecating the use of this ICMP message by transport 
protocols. I worked with Fernando on this and I think this now also 
reflects my understanding of the most recent position discussed in 
TSVWG. Please read:

http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-tsvwg-source-quench-02

According to our charter, this document is due for WGLC in October, if 
you have thoughts or contributions on this topic please do send email to 
this list.

Best wishes,

Gorry
