Hi,

this is a -00 individual I-D to start the work on revising RFC8312 (CUBIC). There are no changes compared to RFC8312 yet (other than formatting due to conversion to markdown, etc.) - this serves as a baseline to make tracking changes easier as we go forward.

Some change proposals are already under discussion, please see https://github.com/NTAP/rfc8312bis/issues and participate in the discussion there.

Thanks,
Lars

> Abstract:
>   CUBIC is an extension to the current TCP standards.  It differs from
>   the current TCP standards only in the congestion control algorithm on
>   the sender side.  In particular, it uses a cubic function instead of
>   a linear window increase function of the current TCP standards to
>   improve scalability and stability under fast and long-distance
>   networks.  CUBIC and its predecessor algorithm have been adopted as
>   defaults by Linux and have been used for many years.  This document
>   provides a specification of CUBIC to enable third-party
>   implementations and to solicit community feedback through
>   experimentation on the performance of CUBIC.
> 
>   This documents obsoletes [RFC8312], updating the specification of
>   CUBIC to conform to the current Linux version.

> Please note that it may take a couple of minutes from the time of submission
