The Internet Engineering Task Force announces the availability of another
newly revised on-line directory, "INTERNET-DRAFTS:".
The "INTERNET-DRAFTS:" directory presents drafts for review and comment.
It contains documents that will be submitted ultimately to the RFC
Editor to be considered for publishing as RFCs. Comments are welcomed
and should be addressed to the responsible persons whose names and email
addresses are listed on the first page of the respective draft. Each
Internet-Draft is placed in a separate file; the following standard
naming scheme is used:
File Format Naming Scheme
ascii text DRAFT-<TFNAME>-<WGNAME>-<ABBREVTITLE>-<REVNO>.TXT
Postscript DRAFT-<TFNAME>-<WGNAME>-<ABBREVTITLE>-<REVNO>.PS
unix compressed ascii DRAFT-<TFNAME>-<WGNAME>-<ABBREVTITLE>-<REVNO>.TXTZ
unix compressed DRAFT-<TFNAME>-<WGNAME>-<ABBREVTITLE>-<REVNO>.PSZ
Postscript
If the document is not being authored in a Task Force, then the author's name
will be substituted for the Working Group name (WGNAME) and an organizational
affiliation will be submitted for the Task Force name (TFNAME). Example:
DRAFT-<ORG>-<AUTHORNAME>-<ABBREVTITLE>-<REVNO>.TXT

The "INTERNET-DRAFTS:" directory is on-line at SRI-NIC.ARPA and can be
accessed by anonymous ftp. It contains a README file and an Index-Abstract
file to aid the reader in locating drafts of interest. The "dir" or "ls"
command will permit a review of what files are available and the specific
naming scheme to use for a successful anonymous ftp action.
