Hi Kacheong,

While I'm considering responses to other comments, I'd like to address this one right away:

Suppose A writes a cc module and puts it in /kernel/tcpcong/,
does it mean that it will automatically be added in the next
reboot (the text seems to imply it)?

No. The algorithm is not automatically registered on reboot. 'ipadm add-cong' is the only way to register an algorithm. What the proposal says - apparently somewhat unclearly - is that the algorithm is registered when it is installed as a package. In the same way drivers are registered with add_drv(1M) when they are installed. In other words, the package has an associated action that invokes 'ipadm add-cong' without the need for the admin to invoke it manually.

-Artem
