FYI: Directory definitions document



FYI, the following draft just came out:

 Title : Definitions for talking about directories
 Author(s) : H. Alvestrand
 Filename : draft-alvestrand-directory-defs-00.txt
 Pages : 6
 Date : 21-Oct-99

 When discussing systems for making information accessible through the
 Internet in standardized ways, it may be useful if the people
 discussing have a common understanding of the terms they use.
 This document is not intended to be either comprehensive or definitive,
 but is intended to give some aid in mutual comprehension when
 discussing information access methods to be incorporated into Internet
 Standards-Track documents.

This is NOT intended to be a BOF in Washington, but I'd enjoy talking to people about it; its intended target is an informational IAB-sanctioned RFC.
Keith Moore has suggested that "directory@apps.ietf.org" (open list, subscription at directory-request@apps.ietf.org) is an appropriate place to talk about this topic.


Comments welcome!

NOTE: This note is spread rather widely. Please do NOT reply to it, but rather to directory@apps.ietf.org or to me personally.
