> Abstract:
>    The world of Internet transport protocols is changing, after decades
>    of TCP and UDP operation.  Several proposals have been submitted for
>    the past years (and counting) to introduce other transport protocols
>    that aim at reducing the web latency of that of TCP or avoiding the
>    burden of the various middle-boxes (NATs, firewalls, for one)
>    encountered along the communication path.  Such initiatives, although
>    not new, are motivated by the complexity of some (non-transparent)
>    networking functions.
> 
>    This document advocates for the definition of transport profiles and
>    the need to document recommendations for middleboxes, including
>    Performance Enhancement Proxies (PEPs) behaviors.  A collaboration
>    among the involved players (service providers, vendors) is required
>    to soften the current complications encountered in the Internet at
>    large.
