Title : IP over Burrito Carriers
Author(s) : M. Schulze, W. Lohsen
Filename : draft-lohsen-ip-burrito-00.txt
Pages : 9
Date : 2005-3-31
IP over Burrito Carriers describes an experimental method for the
creation of edible data packets. This standard is intended to be
implemented in metropolitan area networks due to the preexisting
burrito delivery infrastructure. While currently only flour tortillas
have been found acceptable for encapsulating the data contained in
the packet, tests are underway to determine the viability of using
corn tortillas. One must be wary of disreputable IP over Burrito
service providers as packet corruption and bad data handling can
result in damage to the receiving unit and may result in an extremely
messy packet rejection. Conveniently, there is a rating system
already in place. While the rating by the health department doesn't
ensure proper data encapsulation, it does allow the end user to
determine if the service provider's quality to cost ratio is
adequate. This is an experimental standard, not a recommended
standard.

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
