[Tmrg] TCP evaluation suite round-table

[Lachlan Andrew]

Greetings Fred,

Yes, Sally had already suggested testing down to 56kbit/s  (Thanks Sally!).

Most proposals follow HS-TCP and revert to Reno in these cases, but it
would certainly be good to check that the implementations work
properly.

Cheers,
Lachlan
