A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Internet Architecture Board Working Group of the IETF.
Title : Writing Protocol Models
Author(s) : E. Rescorla
Filename : draft-iab-model-01.txt
Pages : 20
Date : 2004-5-24
The IETF process depends on peer review. However, in many cases, the
documents submitted for publication are extremely difficult to
review. Since reviewers have only limited amounts of time, this leads
to extremely long review times, inadequate reviews, or both. In my
view, a large part of the problem is that most documents fail to pre-
sent an architectural model for how the protocol operated, opting
instead to siply describe the protocol and let the reviewer figure it
out.

In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-iab-model-01.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.
