 A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts 
 directories.                                                              

       Title     : Cache Array Routing Protocol v1.0

This draft documents the Cache Array Routing Protocol (CARP) v1.0 for 
dividing URL-space among an array of loosely coupled proxy servers.        

An HTTP client agent (either a proxy server or a client browser) which 
implements CARP v1.0 can allocate and intelligently route requests for the 
correct URLs to any member of the Proxy Array.  Due to the resulting 
sorting of requests through these proxies, duplication of cache contents is
eliminated and global cache hit rates are improved.

Send a message to:  mailserv@ds.internic.net. In the body type: 
     "FILE /internet-drafts/draft-vinod-carp-v1-00.txt".
							
NOTE: The mail server at ds.internic.net 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.
