Nice idea. However, please note that the discussion of TCP, no matter how hot it seems recently, has in fact been going on for over a year, with no final standard established yet. This is typical of standards efforts. I encourage anyone and everyone to go ahead and do their own thing rather than waiting forever. Some discussion first is a good idea, of course, but don't let it slow you down. Doug Merritt doug@eris.berkeley.edu (ucbvax!eris!doug) or ucbvax!unisoft!certes!doug
