Hey, 
I am highly interested in working through this project due to my past background  and wish to contribute to this however I am facing error in the Forward Acknowledgment (FACK) paper link, it appears to be broken(https://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/download?doi=10.1.1.41.2559&rep=rep1&type=pdf) if possible kindly fix it.
Thanks,
Shabd

I'm guessing that you are referring to this wiki page: https://www.nsnam.org/wiki/GSOC2025Projects#Linux-like_Loss_Detection_Techniques_for_ns-3_TCP

I have fixed that link; thank you for pointing it out.

Please note that there is already a substantial effort towards FACK and DSACK and the code is in review right now (see: https://gitlab.com/nsnam/ns-3-dev/-/merge_requests/2406, https://gitlab.com/nsnam/ns-3-dev/-/merge_requests/2405).  An older implementation of RACK is found here: https://gitlab.com/nsnam/ns-3-dev/-/merge_requests/34; perhaps it could be updated and proposed again.

Thanks, Tom, for fixing the link.

Thanks for your interest in this work, Shabd.

As Tom mentioned, we have almost completed building these models (including RACK, whose MR will be updated in a few days).

It would be great if you could review them and give us your feedback.

Best Regards,
Mohit P. Tahiliani

Thanks Tom for fixing the link,
I was reading in the approaches for my personal interest however I do wish to contribute to something of similar flavor or get on with one of your current projects, kindly highlight where must I go to look forward on your current involvement in ns-3.
