In my opinion, you should introduce the challenges faced to get to this point a little bit more.
There has been an historically difficult insertion of packet scheduling in the Internet.

FQ in the first place has suffered ostracism for a number of reasons, some acceptable criticism, 
some others just driven by ignorance.
You don't make that point at the beginning of the presentation and you should, IMO.

Let me be a little dramatic for a second. 
It's been an odyssey. Really, if we start counting from John Nagle (1985) and
Ellen Hahne's Ph.D thesis at MIT supervised by Robert Gallager.
And take FQ_codel RFC as another milestone in 2018.

More than 30 years. That's an odyssey. Longer actually as Ulysses stayed away from home only 20 years!
So cake is really sitting on giant's shoulders.
But the list is long, Jim Roberts, Scott Shenker, Luigi Rizzo and many many others, sorry the list is too long.

Why so difficult? Was it worthy? 
I think you should say that at the conference. 
Gook luck!

Round robin scheduling for fair flow control in data communication networks.

I started at the lanman2018 talk (to be given next tuesday), this past

Try as I might, finding a memorable narrative hook to fit into 20
minutes eludes me. There's so much to cake! There's no room for me to
break out a guitar or carry a case of water bottles into this preso.

A principal complaint of the reviewers of the paper  was the lack of
real world tests, so I snuck in a couple sides for that and am working
on incorporating the graphs and other text from the paper.

But ya know, it's always been a group effort and if anyone(s) here
would like to contribute better slides, jokes, text, ideas, graphs,
charts, or whatever, it would be helpful, because I can no longer see
the forest after passing through it. I've oft wished we had the
equivalent of a corp communications department 'cause my attempts at
graphics generally suck.

What does a ieee lanman2018 audience already grok, what needs to be explained?

I will be periodically updating the currently very raw

as we go along. Please share your thoughts....
