Datagram Congestion Control Protocol WG (dccp)

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

CHAIR:	Aaron Falk <falk@isi.edu> 
 
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
