The IESG has approved the following document: - 'URI Fragment Identifiers for the text/plain Media Type ' <draft-wilde-text-fragment-09.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 Chris Newman. A URL of this Internet-Draft is: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-wilde-text-fragment-09.txt Technical Summary This memo defines URI fragment identifiers for text/plain MIME entities. These fragment identifiers make it possible to refer to parts of a text/plain MIME entity, either identified by character position or range, or by line position or range. Fragment identifiers may also contain hash information to make them more robust. Working Group Summary This was the product of an individual submitter. Protocol Quality This was reviewed for the IESG by Chris Newman. Substantive review comments were provided by many contributors. Secdir review was provided by Jeffrey Hutzelman. This has been discussed for some time in the URI community. During IETF last call, there were some strong feelings that the regular expression feature was too complex so the feature was removed from the specification (and this removal was verified on the IETF mailing list). _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce@ietf.org https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf-announce
