FW: Last Call: draft-ietf-tcpm-tcp-soft-errors (TCP's Reaction to Soft Errors) to Informational RFC

[Jari Arkko <jari.arkko@piuha.net>]

6MAN and V6OPS WGs,

This informational document suggests changes to how
TCP deals with certain classes of ICMP errors. This affects
behavior in a number situations, including what happens
to dual stack nodes when they attempt to connect to hosts
that have both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.

The document seems reasonable, but I would like to see some
review from the IPv6 community to ensure that nothing has
been missed. Please take the time to review this during the
last call period which ends on August 26th.

Thanks,

Jari
