This document applies to proposals for congestion control algorithms
that seek Experimental or Standards Track status.
So ... if I get an Informational RFC I can do whatever I want? Wondering why
Informational isn't listed here.
s5.3.2: The 1st para invokes some RFC 6919 like requirements language like
"ought to" and "it would be helpful". Any reason there isn't BCP 1 4language
used in this para?
s6: Is "MUST find" another way of saying there must be coommunity consensus?
If so maybe:
OLD:
Unless a proposed congestion control specification
explicitly forbids use on the public Internet, the community MUST
find that it meets the criteria in these scenarios for the proposed
congestion control algorithm to progress.
NEW:
Unless a proposed congestion control specification
explicitly forbids use on the public Internet, the community MUST
reach consensus that it meets the criteria in these scenarios for the proposed
congestion control algorithm to progress.

Nits:
s5.1.3, 2nd para: expand BDP.
s7.9, lastt para: s/(see Section 4./(see Section 4).
