Thank you,

I had the same opinion, I was wondering if there was an updated page about that

PS: I think it might be a good idea if there was a hint in ns-documentation or
tutorial about which TCP Agent to use in the simulations. I was personally quite
mixed-up at the beginning with all these various flavours. So I used Tahoe TCP
and only later I found out that TCP/Reno is usually the "minimum" TCP
implementation.
