The IESG has approved the Internet-Draft 'ICAP the Internet Content Adaptation Protocol' <draft-elson-icap-01.txt> as an Informational RFC. This has been reviewed in the IETF but is not the product of an IETF Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Ned Freed and Patrik Faltstrom. IESG Note: The Open Pluggable Edge Services (OPES) working group has been chartered to produce a standards track protocol specification for a protocol intended to perform the same sorts of functions as ICAP. However, since ICAP is already in widespread use the IESG believes it is appropriate to document existing usage by publishing the iCAP specification as an informational document. The IESG also notes that ICAP was developed before the publication of RFC 3238 and therefore does not address the architectural and policy issues described in that document.
