Fw: TCP Framing Proposal

["Constantine Sapuntzakis" <csapuntz@cisco.com>]

A draft on TCP ULP framing from the ad-hoc WARP RDMA group is now available.
The latest
version of the draft is at

http://www.stanford.edu/~csapuntz/draft-williams-tcpulpframe-01.txt

A slightly older version is available from the Internet Draft repository
under the name
draft-williams-tcpulpframe-00.txt   The algorithm is the same as in the -01
draft but the
explanatory text and analysis is poorer.

The discussion of this draft will take place on the TSVWG reflector. To

Thanks,
