The IESG has approved the following document: - 'The telnet URI Scheme ' <draft-hoffman-telnet-uri-05.txt> as a Proposed Standard This document has been reviewed in the IETF but is not the product of an IETF Working Group. The IESG contact person is Ted Hardie. Technical Summary This document specifies the telnet Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) scheme that was originally specified in RFC 1738. The purpose of this document is to allow RFC 1738 to be made obsolete while keeping the information about the scheme on the standards track and appropriately referenced within the IANA registry. Working Group Summary This document is the product of an individual submitter, but the strategy of splitting RFC 1738's registrations was discussed by the URI mailing list. The document did receive comments during the IETF last call and an RFC Editor's note has been added in response to one issue raised. Protocol Quality This document was reviewed for the IESG by Ted Hardie. RFC Editor Note Please add a normative reference to: [STD0008] Postel, J., and Reynolds, J., "Telnet Protocol Specification", STD 0008, May 1983. IANA Note Please update the registration of the Telnet scheme to point to this document once it has been published. _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce@ietf.org https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf-announce
