Hello,

We just submitted a new Internet draft for TCP Cubic.

https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-tcpm-cubic-01

Compare to the previous version 00, this version has the following changes.

1. Changes to address comments at 
http://trac.tools.ietf.org/group/irtf/trac/wiki/ICCRG_cubic
* defined the units of window sizes and times at the beginning of Section 3
* redefined beta according to the traditional convention.
    + That is, cwnd=cwnd*beta on packet loss, instead of 
cwnd=cwnd*(1-beta) on packet loss.
    + Updated all beta-related equations and texts
* redefined overloaded variables.
   + for example, separate beta into beta_cubic and beta_aimd. Similar 
for W, alpha
* added parentheses to equations to avoid confusions.
* revised Section 3.2 "TCP-Friendly Region" to make it clearer
* some other minor editorial changes (e.g., updating Sangtae's 
organization, removing todo).

2. Changes to document the Linux Cubic
   * changed the beta from 0.8 to 0.7 to be consistent with the Linux 
Cubic code.
   * updated Equations 6 and 7 accordingly
   * updated Tables 1, 2, and 3 accordingly
   * some other minor editorial changes

Thanks
Lisong
