This full version is not on the ds.internic.net site.  Will 02 be?

This revision, while posted to the list, isn't on the ds.internic.net site
either.

> draft-ietf-ipsec-auth-hmac-md5-96-00.txt

This revision is not on the site either.

And while I've got this one up, lemme ask the naive question that probably
has been answered during ANX testing.

	For ESP, do I use the truncated 96-bit HMAC results to place at
	the end of my ESP datagram?  Or do I used the full result?

	In either case, both of the ipsec-auth documents need to make clear
	how the auth algorithm in question is used in AH (where 96-bit
	trunc is useful) and in ESP (where it is probably a don't-care).

Thanks,
Dan
