A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. Title : The serviceid: URI Scheme for Service Location Author(s) : E. Guttman Filename : draft-guttman-svrloc-serviceid-01.txt Pages : 7 Date : 11-Jan-02 The Service Location Protocol (SLP) allows clients to discover services with little or no prior configuration. SLP can be used to advertise services of any kind through the use of URLs. However, SLP uses URLs for two purposes: as a LOCATOR (indicating the location of the service) and as an IDENTIFIER (used for subsequent operations on a service, such as registration, deregistration and looking up attributes.) Confounding these two functions in one object leads to certain problems. The serviceid: scheme separates identification from location, eliminating these problems. A URL for this Internet-Draft is: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-guttman-svrloc-serviceid-01.txt To remove yourself from the IETF Announcement list, send a message to ietf-announce-request with the word unsubscribe in the body of the message. Internet-Drafts are also available by anonymous FTP. Login with the username "anonymous" and a password of your e-mail address. After logging in, type "cd internet-drafts" and then "get draft-guttman-svrloc-serviceid-01.txt". A list of Internet-Drafts directories can be found in http://www.ietf.org/shadow.html or ftp://ftp.ietf.org/ietf/1shadow-sites.txt Internet-Drafts can also be obtained by e-mail. Send a message to: mailserv@ietf.org. In the body type: "FILE /internet-drafts/draft-guttman-svrloc-serviceid-01.txt". 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.
