[dccp] consensus call: draft-larsen-tsvwg-port-randomization to WG item

[Lars Eggert <lars.eggert at nokia.com>]

Hi,

regarding http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-larsen-tsvwg-port- 
randomization, there was quite a bit of discussion around this draft  
during the summer. My personal take is that I saw more positive than  
negative comments, but I'd like to confirm this.

I'd hence like to start a consensus call on whether we want to take  
this document to be the basis for a standards-track work item in  
TSVWG that will recommend a randomization scheme for operating  
systems allocation of source ports. Because this scheme will cover  
all our transport protocols, I'm CC'ing the DCCP and TCPM working  
groups. This consensus call will run for two weeks, until September 28.

Please comment on the tsvwg at ietf.org list (reply-to set accordingly),  
even if you have already commented be on this draft in the past.

To make it easy for your chairs, please start your email by choosing  
ONE of the options below, followed by any detailed comments you'd  
like to make:

  (1) TSVWG should take on this work item, with this document as the  
basis
  (2) TSVWG should take on this work item, but NOT with this  
document as the basis
  (3) TSVWG should NOT take on this work item
  (4) don't care

Thanks,
Lars
