tcpm is the right mailing list but there is currently no effort to develop
this topic. Why? Because is not a standardization issue, rather it is a
technical issue. You cannot rise the initial CWND and expect a fair behavior.
This was discussed several times and is documented in several documents and
RFCs.
RFC 5681 Section 3.1. Google employees should start with Section 3. This topic
pop's of every two months in netdev and until now I _never_ read a
consolidated contribution.
Partial local issues can already be "fixed" via route specific ip options -
see initcwnd.
