RE: TCP framing and SCTP Checksum: TSVWG only

[Black_David@emc.com]

Doug - please follow instructions from your WG co-chair.
Both TCP framing and SCTP Checksums are tsvwg topics
and need to be taken up there.  If solutions emerge
there, they can be adopted by reference here - you
can be assured that you're not the only person on
both mailing lists.
