> Abstract:
>   This memo provides an experimental update to RFC3168.  It updates the
>   TCP sender-side reaction to a congestion notification received via
>   Explicit Congestion Notification (ECN).  The updated method reduces
>   cwnd by a smaller amount than TCP does in reaction to loss.  The
>   intention is to achieve good throughput when the queue at the
>   bottleneck is smaller than the bandwidth-delay-product of the
>   connection.  This is more likely when an Active Queue Management
>   (AQM) mechanism has used ECN to CE-mark a packet, than when a packet
>   was lost.  Future versions of this document will discuss SCTP as well
>   as other transports using ECN.
