This document defines the Peer-to-Peer Protocol (P2PP), an
application-layer binary protocol, for creating and maintaining an
overlay of participant nodes.  The overlay can be created using
various structured and unstructured peer-to-peer protocols such as
Bamboo, Chord, Pastry, Kademlia, Gnutella, and Gia. P2PP uses a
secure transport, supports an application API, has mechanisms for NAT
and firewall traversal, exchanging node capabilities, and diagnostic
information.  P2PP is designed to support a P2P Session Initiation
Protocol (SIP) network, but it can be used for other applications as
well.

NOTE:   The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.

Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
