MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org List-ID: X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Content-Length: 660 Lines: 17 Is it time to enable TCP ECN per default and get the benefits, since router support has been around and known-about for really considerable time? Perhaps it should be a question of enabling it, and educating people to disable it if they run into issues, since we'll probably be in the same situation in 5 years...and it'll be some time before these kernels hit devices/servers anyway.
