If you're wondering if there's an RFC for it, nope. RFC 5781 specifies the rsync: URI but refers back tohttp://rsync.samba.org/ for details on rsync. I don't suppose anyone would object if we made an RFC out of the spec but given that the tech report, thesis, and multiple implementations are widely available without restriction (other than GPL on some of the code) it doesn't seem worth a lot of effort.
I remember when IETF cared about making standards and promoting broad interoperability.
