A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
Title : Numeric Locators for Uniform Resource Identifiers
Author(s) : I. Nejgebauer
Filename : draft-nejgebauer-numeric-locators-00.txt
Pages : 9
Date : 2003-3-20
This document describes the syntax of numeric character strings,
called numeric locators or simply locators, which form a hierarchical
name space where any node except the root can (or, if it is a leaf
node, must) resolve to a single Uniform Resource Identifier. It also
defines a mapping of the locator name space to the Domain Name
System, which allows the use of the existing DNS infrastructure to
resolve locators.

In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-nejgebauer-numeric-locators-00.txt".
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.
