[Standards] Fwd: Re: [Simple] MSRP congestion control issue when using relays

Hiya folks (and copying Rémi who wrote this).

This comes from a thread on the SIMPLE WG mailing list, relating to  
MSRP over relays. Rémi's post described the issue very cearly, much  
clearer than I can, hence the reason I've simply attached his post  
verbatim.

I'm wondering if people think that a similar thing might affect XMPP,  
if you change "relay" to "XMPP Server". Is it possible, potentially,  
for Calin and Donald, by exchanging sufficient data sufficiently  
slowly, to choke up an XMPP s2s link? And if so, what do we do about  
it?

And perhaps more importantly, has anyone ever seen this in the wild?

Dave.
