[e2e] TCP Framing

[David P. Reed]

Bob - I agree with you that having TCP control the framing underneath it 
places a significant burden on future evolution of the TCP and IP.  You are 
right, as well, about the intention of the TCP spec to avoid linking 
segmentation to the sequence of calls - it was considered and dropped.

And for that matter, I still don't see the need.  If your data should be 
processable out of order, why not use multiple TCP connections, RTP, or 
(gasp) UDP?  If the data needs to be processed in order, then framing can 
be embedded in the data stream.
