Hello!

> That's not quite correct. 2.4 doesn't use the Van Jacobson algorithm anymore

Anymore? Funny note. Look into formerly used algo. :-)

At least, the differences are less than differences between original algo
and its implementaion in BSD, and then between linux-2.2 and BSD.
Actually, I do not know any implemenattion closer to VJ's proposal. :-)

No matter, the sense is to distinuguish RFC algorithm which does not
use rttvar.
