I don't share the relentless optimism of this document, and would like it - or a competing document - to go into the potential negatives. examples of this include the TOS washing problem bob alluded to in one of the tsvwg meetings (the monday one), the impact on competing flows, the problem of unresponsive agents or other misuse, the deprecation (?) of the nonce mechanism, and how to properly switch between marking and dropping in an aqm. There are also the possibilities in new uses for ecn (for example, in the original rmcat nada proposal), in usages on local links in routing protocols, and in new protocols such as quic, etc. > -- > Wes Eddy > MTI Systems > > _______________________________________________ > aqm mailing list > [email protected] > https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/aqm -- Dave Täht NSFW: https://w2.eff.org/Censorship/Internet_censorship_bills/russell_0296_indecent.article _______________________________________________ aqm mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/aqm
