Subject: [trill] New Version: draft-ietf-trill-ecn-support-03

Trillers,

Donald & I have just posted a minor rev of draft-ietf-trill-ecn-support 
to address the following points:

* Until now Low Latency Low Loss Scalable throughput (L4S) was 
referenced as an individual contribution. L4S is now adopted (tsvwg 
milestone), so trill support for the L4S variant of ECN is now more 
significant. However, the advice on L4S marking only explains how 
trill/ECN handling (already specified in this doc) can work correctly 
with the L4S variant of ECN as well. So the L4S text is still not 
normative and still consigned to an appendix.

* Used the new key word boilerplate including RFC 8174.

* Acknowledged Loa Andersson's review.

* Some minor corrections.

As usual, you can get the full diff from the links below.

Cheers

Bob
