Description of Working Group:
No description available
Goals and Milestones:
Done Submit design-space, building-blocks, and guidelines drafts for
publication as Informational RFCs
Done Initial Drafts for the following building blocks: negative
acknowledgments, forward error correction, a generic signaling
mechanism for router assist, and transport protection
Done Submit Initial Drafts for the two protocol instantiations.
Done Submit Initial Draft for Congestion Control
Done Complete building-block drafts WG Last-Call and submit for
publication as Proposed Standard
Done Complete building blocks and protocol instantiations for ALC
and submit for publication as Experimental RFC
Done WG Decision on whether to pursue the router-assist building
block work. These milestones may have to be modified
accordingly
Done Submit WEBRC (congestion control building block) for
publication as Experimental
Done Submit NACK building block and protocol instantiation for
publication as Experimental
Done Evaluate when and how the RMT Experimental specifications will
be submitted for publication as Proposed Standard, and update
this charter accordingly
Sep 2005 Submit remaining congestion control building blocks (TFMCC,
PGMCC) for publication as Experimental
Dec 2005 Submit all the RMT Eperimental Specifications published before
July 05 for publication as Proposed Standard
Apr 2006 Submit all remaining RMT Eperimental Specifications for
publication as Proposed Standard
