The HAPPY working group will deliver an updated version of the Happy Eyeballs
algorithm that incorporates changes to account for these protocol developments.
The algorithm will focus on realistic network scenarios and should be guided by
performance data measured in deployed networks. Although the algorithm
needs to be generally applicable, platform-specific or deployment-specific
considerations should be documented to help guide implementers. The algorithm
should have tunable input values that can reflect
the preferences of a client implementation; defaults for these input values
can be based on working group consensus for standard behavior
(such as preferring IPv6 connections, preferring faster establishment times,
etc.), but allow for variation.

There have been a number of documents in which similar Happy Eyeballs-like racing
strategies have been specified, including in RFC 9132. An inventory of such
Happy Eyeballs-related use cases and a survey of other applications of similar
concepts are also in scope, which can be included as part of the Happy Eyeballs
Version 3 main deliverable.

The working group will also document the impact of the Happy Eyeballs algorithm
on the detection of misconfigured deployments and may provide recommendations on
