Datagram Congestion Control Protocol WG (dccp)

Wednesday, July  16 at 1300-1500
=================================

CHAIR:  Aaron Falk <[email protected]>

The DCCP working group is scheduled to hold a design review at the
Vienna IETF.  Background on the DCCP working group and the problem the
protocol is addressing can be found in [1] and [2].


A short, 9 page summary of the protocol can be found at [0].


This working group is following an aggressive schedule of about 18
months, hoping to publish the spec this November.  The three
specification documents are fairly stable and we are near completion
of an expert review of the spec documents.  The purpose of holding a
design review at this time is to surface any remaining issues which
may reveal themselves to the larger IETF community.



AGENDA


 10 min - intro, ground rules, charter review


 40 min - spec walkthrough


          - questions only by reviewers
          - focus on clarification and identification of issues, not
            resolving  them
          - current specs versions are [3], [4], and [5]


 10 min - summary of provocative/significant comments from written
          reviews


          - intent is to frame open discussion -- two reviews have
            already been posted to wg mail list


 45 min -  open discussion


          - strong encouragement that significant issues/comments be
            written up by commenter to list (in real time would be
            good)


 10 min -  reviewer feedback


          - want quick rundown from reviewers: What must be done
            before spec can progress?  (followup with written note to
            list)


 5  min - wrap-up next steps
