        Title           : DCCP Simultaneous-Open Technique to Facilitate 
NAT/Middlebox Traversal

This document specifies an update to the Datagram Congestion Control
Protocol (DCCP), a connection-oriented and datagram-based transport
protocol.  The update adds support for the DCCP-Listen packet.  This
assists DCCP applications to communicate through middleboxes (e.g. a
DCCP server behind a firewall, or a Network Address Port Translator),
where peering endpoints need to initiate communication in a near-
simultaneous manner to establish necessary middlebox state.
