I have reviewed this document as part of the Operational directorate's ongoing
effort to review all IETF documents being processed by the IESG.  These
comments were
 written primarily for the benefit of the operational area directors.

Document editors and WG chairs should treat these comments just like any other
last call comments.



I think this document is written very clear and is an very good reference guide
to all the transport layer protocols being developed by IETF, good resource to
Wikipedia.



IMHO, the document would be more useful (in IETF) to show which applications
are actually using those less popular protocols, like FLUTE, NORM, DCCP, SCTP,
RTP etc. Who
 uses FLUTE? NORM? DCCP? I understand that SS7 uses SCTP, but are there any
 others using SCTP?



The document missed the DCTCP, the GTP transport layer protocol (used within

GSM

 and

UMTS

 networks).




Not sure why ICMP is listed in parallel with TCP/UDP. If ICMP is included, many
others should be included,
