[dccp] milestone updates

[Lars Eggert <lars.eggert at netlab.nec.de>]

Hi,

during the Paris meeting, we proposed to update our milestones as  
summarized below. Please send comments to the list. Assuming the WG  
agrees, we'll initiate the milestone update process in a few days.

November 2005: complete WGLC draft-ietf-dccp-problem-xx as Informational
November 2005: complete WGLC draft-ietf-dccp-tfrc-media-xx as  
Informational

June 2006: complete WGLC draft-ietf-dccp-user-guide-xx as  
Informational (or BCP?)
June 2006: complete WGLC draft-ietf-dccp-tfrc-voip-xx as Experimental
June 2006: complete WGLC draft-ietf-dccp-tfrc-faster-restart-xx as  
Experimental

Proceedings of the WG meeting will be available soon, here are some  
initial notes to go with the milestone update:

draft-ietf-dccp-problem-xx is already in WGLC, which we'll end as  
soon as the final revision appears.

draft-ietf-dccp-tfrc-media-xx requires a bit more work to address the  
comments brought up during the presentation in Paris.

For draft-ietf-dccp-user-guide-xx, we'd like to update it based on  
implementation experience. Implementors should take a look and  
coordinate with Tom.

draft-ietf-dccp-tfrc-voip-xx and draft-ietf-dccp-tfrc-faster-restart- 
xx are relatively stable. The goal is to make them "Experimental" in  
the sense that people have a stable spec to actually experiment with  
the mechanisms, being very clear that we (currently) don't feel they  
are safe for widespread deployment. It'd be great if implementations  
that have otherwise stabilized would start to check if and how they  
can implement these variants, to allow researchers to play with them  
on the real network.

Comments?

Lars
