The document provides guidelines for the IETF when evaluating new proposed congestion control algorithms. While important, this document is not directly influencing network operations. This update grows the document from 10 pages (RFC 5033) to 25 pages. I found the draft well structured and easy to read and all content appears to be well justified. The draft provides helpful advice to everybody involved in the development and evaluation of congestion control algorithms. - I am wondering whether section 7.1.1 really should be a sub-section of 7.1, which implies that a network circuit breaker are viewed as a special kind of an active queue management technique. Keeping the sub-sections a flat list of special cases may simplify things. I also found the title of section 7.1.1 a bit longish compared to the other section titles. Perhaps turning 7.1.1 into "7.2 Interaction with Network Transport Circuit Breakers" or just "7.2 Network Transport Circuit Breakers" leads to a simpler structure. - Similarly, I wonder whether sub-section 7.7.1 should be lifted up as well. Path changes are not necessarily a transient event. Perhaps 7.7.1 should become "7.X Changes in the Path" (dropping sudden as well). The point made in the text is that paths are not static, they may change. Perhaps the above two comments make no sense, then just ignore them. I just thought I share them since they came up during my first time read of the document.
