As there has been a lot of interest in the CMP Internet
draft on multiplexing Telnet and Rlogin session, (see
enclosed abstract), we have setup a mailing list for anyone
who wishes to take part in the discussion:

       Title     : Connection Multiplexing Protocol (CMP)             
       Author(s) : P. Cameron, J. Bates
       Filename  : draft-cameron-cmp-00.txt
       Pages     : 11

One of the problems with terminal servers attached to a LAN is the 
large number of small packets they can generate.  Frequently, most of 
these packets are destined for only one or two hosts.  CMP is a 
protocol which allows multiple Telnet and Rlogin connections, between 
a server and a host, to share a single TCP connection.  With simple 
extensions this can be expanded to include other TCP protocols.
