Description of Document

<div>RFC5050 requires a reliable data delivery service between overlay routers.&nbsp; While CCSDS has reliable data link protocols in TC and AOS, neither is well-suited for use as a convergence layer by RFC5050.&nbsp; It is likely that any Delay Tolerant Networking protocol proposed by this group will need reliability on a hop-by-hop basis.&nbsp; Thus this working group will also standardize a reliable hop-by-hop data delivery service that can be used by the Delay Tolerant Networking protocol specified by this WG.&nbsp; The Licklider Transport Protocol (LTP) as described in the work-in-progress http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-irtf-dtnrg-ltp-09.txt was designed for exactly this purpose, and will be the initial focus of this part of the WG effort.</div>
