Comment(by karsten):

 Some notes from the #tor-dev meeting on April 12:

  - Roger believes the answer to the question in this deliverable is "yes,
 we can get rid of stream-level congestion windows."  The main result would
 be a) slightly improved performance for clients who do one thing at once,
 and b) unknown performance hits for clients who do two or more streams at
 once.  To be sure of answering this question well, Roger would need to
 drop all his hats and be a Tor researcher for the next months.

  - The simulators need more work before we can answer this question well.
 Roger says he should help Rob with his CSET submission and move forward
 the various tickets on simulator fail.

  - Roger hopes that removing stream-level congestion windows might be
 unnecessary because we will decide N23 is better.
