Pointers to Useful Documents and Files

   This is a list of documents and files that provide useful information
   about the IETF meetings, Working Groups, and documentation.  These
   files reside in the "ietf" directory on the Anonymous FTP sites
   listed below.  Files with names beginning with "0" (zero) pertain to
   IETF meetings.  These may refer to a recently held meeting if the
   first announcement of the next meeting has not yet been sent to the
   IETF mailing list.  Files with names beginning with "1" (one) contain
   general IETF information.  This is only a partial list of the
   available files.

   o  0mtg-agenda.txt            Agenda for the meeting
   o  0mtg-at-a-glance.txt       Logistics information for the meeting
   o  0mtg-rsvp.txt              Meeting registration form
   o  0mtg-sites.txt             Future meeting sites and dates
   o  0mtg-traveldirections.txt  Directions to the meeting site

   o  1directories.txt           The IETF Shadow directory locations and
                                 contents.
   o  1id-guidelines.txt         Guidelines to Authors of Internet-Drafts
                                 Contains information on writing and
                                 submitting I-Ds.
   o  1ietf-description.txt      Short description of the IETF and IESG,
                                 including a list of Area Directors.

   o  1nonwg-discuss.txt         A list of mailing lists created to
                                 discuss specific IETF issues.
   o  1proceedings-request.txt   A Proceedings order form for the
                                 current and previous meetings
   o  1wg-summary.txt            List of all Working Groups, by Area,
                                 including the name and address of the
                                 chairperson, and the mailing list
                                 address.

   Additionally, the charters and minutes of the Working Groups and BOFs
   are archived in the "ietf" directory.

   All of these documents are available by anonymous FTP from the
   following sites:

   o  DDN NIC          Address:  nic.ddn.mil (192.112.36.5)
   o  East Coast (US)  Address:  nnsc.nsf.net (128.89.1.178)
   o  West Coast (US)  Address:  ftp.nisc.sri.com (192.33.33.22)
   o  Pacific Rim      Address:  munnari.oz.au (128.250.1.21)
   o  Europe           Address:  nic.nordu.net (192.36.148.17)

   The files are also available via email from various mail servers.  To
   to get the agenda and meeting summary from the mail server at SRI
   International, for example, you would send the following message:

      To: [e-mail]          Message header
      Subject: anything you want

      send 0mtg-agenda.txt                  Body of the message
      send 0mtg-at-a-glance.txt

   Residing on the same archive sites are the RFCs and Internet-Drafts.
   They are in the "rfc" and "internet-drafts" directories,
   respectively.  The file "rfc-index.txt" contains the latest
   information about the RFCs (e.g., which have been obsoleted by
   which).  In general, only the newest version of an Internet-Draft is
   available.

   Mail servers can also be used to retrieve RFCs and I-Ds.  To use
   SRI's mail server to get an RFC, simply include a "send command" in
   the body of the message for the desired RFC.  For example:

      send rfc1150

   or use a special RFC shorthand:

      rfc 1150

RFC 1391                    The Tao of IETF                 January 1993


   For Internet-Drafts, include the name (yes, they are very long) in a
   "send" command line.  For example:

      send draft-ietf-ripv2-mibext-03.txt

   RFCs may also be retrieved, using email, from ISI's RFC-Info server
   at "[e-mail]".  To get a specific RFC, include the following
   in the body of the message:

      Retrieve: RFC
       Doc-ID: RFC0951

   This example would cause a copy of RFC 951 (the leading zero in the
   Doc-ID is required) to be emailed to the requestor.

   To get a list of available RFCs which match certain criteria, include
   the following in the body of the message:

      LIST: RFC
       Keywords: Gateway

   This example would email a list of all RFCs with "Gateway" in the
   title, or as an assigned keyword, to the requestor.

   To get a copy of the RFC-Info manual:

      HELP: Manual

   To get information on other ways to get RFCs:

      HELP: ways_to_get_rfcs
