Subject: [Tsvwg] TCP window size increase

I assume this is the correct alias for TCP implementation questions. If 
not please redirect it to the right one.

Would it be OK for a TCP implementation to advertise the window size
in the TCP header to be more than the window advertisement
made during the 3-way handshake (assuming that the increased window 
does not require window scaling) ? I haven't found anything in the
limited TCP literature that i have seen so far that explictly forbids this.
If it does cause a problem for another TCP implementation or it violates
the protocol in any way, what specifically are those issues?

Thanks,
Murali
