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. 
One group of such systems is known under the term 'directories'. 
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.

In the body type:
	"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-alvestrand-directory-defs-02.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.
