A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Remote Direct Data Placement Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: The Architecture of Direct Data Placement (DDP)And 
			  Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA)On Internet Protocols
	Author(s)	: S. Bailey, T. Talpey

This document defines an abstract architecture for Direct Data
Placement (DDP) and Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) protocols to
run on Internet Protocol-suite transports.  This architecture does
not necessarily reflect the proper way to implement such protocols,
but is, rather, a descriptive tool for defining and understanding
the protocols.  DDP allows the efficient placement of data into
buffers designated by Upper Layer Protocols (e.g. RDMA).  RDMA
provides the semantics to enable Remote Direct Memory Access
between peers in a way consistent with application requirements.

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.
