Great to hear that! And yep, others *should* comment if
anything is missing - folks, please take a look!

Agreed - Wesley, let's do this in our next update.

We didn't include an IETF reference for H-TCP because it's

... or remove them altogether  :)   Not 100% sure what's the
better choice here... citing them makes sense, but then again,
why cite only mechanisms 1-4 and not 5-8? I'm not sure I want
to go down that road... a solution might be to cite an overview
from our bibliography and avoid mentioning names of mechanisms.
