A framework for NSIS is in preparation, and will identify a split
into two layers. The lower layer, referred to as the NSIS Transport
Layer Protocol (NTLP) provides generic support for different types of
path coupled signalling, including QoS signalling. This document
discusses issues to be considered in the design of an NSIS Transport
Layer Protocol (NTLP).

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.
