No, I mean in our own application layer.

What I meant was that we just keep sending packets which TCP/IP keeps
in order for us by reassembling out-of-order and retransmitted
packets.  Asynchronously we sent back to our own application an ACK
that our app level packet was finally received.  It's a sliding window
protocol.  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sliding_Window_Protocol
