A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
Title : Information Retrieval Protocol for Digital Library

This document specifies an information retrieval protocol for digital
library. This protocol has two parts: standard search Webservice for
heterogeneous databases and the method to find and select such search
Webservice. By using this protocol, all the databases including web
page database, digital issue database, and video database, can
release the uniform search Webservice, though these databases may
have different metadata standards and architecture. And these
Webservice can be easily found and visited by search systems. This
very protocol makes it possible that users can obtain all kinds of
information on the Internet in single search engine, but not visit
lots of different search engines one by one.

In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-liang-irpdl-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.
