	Title		: Signaled Preemption Priority Policy Element

This document describes a preemption priority policy element for use by 
signaled policy based admission protocols (such as [RSVP] and [COPS]).  
Preemption priority defines a relative importance (rank) within the set 
of flows competing to be admitted into the network. Rather than 
admitting flows by order of arrival (First Come First Admitted) network 
nodes may consider priorities to preempt some previously admitted low 
priority flows in order to make room for a newer, high-priority flow.

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.

implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
