Hi All,

Hanno's suggestion, regarding congestion mitigation alerting/controls, brings 
another question to mind - something which I've been wondering a little about 
as I read the specification:

Seeing as this is really just a QoS implementation of sorts, with congestion 
relief (aka throttling) being just one aspect of QoS, is there an actual QoS 
standard that this proposal is modeled on? Considering how much work has been 
done on QoS and congestion relief/mitigation on existing network protocols, I 
was wondering if this proposal is based on one of those, or if it's entirely 
ad-hoc?

If there are other QoS strategies and implementations that were drawn on in the 
development of this proposal, it might be nice to include references / 
citations to them in the proposal itself so that people can see where this 
proposal aligns with, or departs from, the existing bodies of work done in the 
QoS space.
