Check it out... our very own Neal Cardwell gets honorable mention.
This same week Tom got quoted about IPv6 in IEEE Computer.
We're awash in fame!

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts
directories.
This draft is a work item of the TCP Implementation Working Group of the
IETF.
Title : TCP Congestion Control
Author(s) : M. Allman, V. Paxson, W. Stevens
Filename : draft-ietf-tcpimpl-cong-control-01.txt
Pages : 11
Date : 09-Nov-98
This document defines TCP's four intertwined congestion control
algorithms: slow start, congestion avoidance, fast retransmit, and
fast recovery. In addition, the document specifies how TCP should
begin transmission after a relatively long idle period, as well as
discussing various acknowledgment generation methods.

"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-tcpimpl-cong-control-01.txt".
NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail
readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
