Summary:          This document is ready for publication

In summary, draft-ietf-congcons-01:

- applies only to pseudowires that run over something other than MPLS (e.g.,
GRE) - concludes that no additional mechanisms are needed for elastic
pseudowires - concludes that an inelastic pseudowire MAY shutdown when it
experiences higher-than-acceptable loss, latency or jitter - observes that that
for TDM PWs, as loss rate increases, higher-than-acceptable loss generally
occurs before the fixed-rate TDM PW could cause serious problems for competing
congestion-responsive traffic - Therefore, no additional mechanisms are needed
for inelastic pseudowires, either

I see nothing objectionable in the draft. However, its scope is extremely
limited and it conclusions are not earthshattering. Nonetheless, the work is
sound and deserves publication.
